AC/DC Let There Be Rock - one of the best, one continuous adrenaline rush.
Shine a Light - one of the worst, the audience looked like they were all paid actors.

Brilliantly shot, but boring as hell. I've never been able to really appreciate this film. Scorsese seemed to try to do something similar with Shine a Light...
but while I like the Band, this film, IMO, lifeted to some kind of mythical status that I don't get.

I hear ya...I remember watching it for the first time and leaving it somewhat underwhelmed. Perhaps it fell victim to the overhype and myth that came with it.

The worst I've seen would be The Who - Live at Kilburn. Couldn't even watch the whole thing, you can hardly see anything and the songs are barely recognisable.

Nice list, Youngie. I very much enjoyed the camera work on the Stones' Texas DVD. I love the shots where the camera is right at the front of stage looking up at Mick when he comes to the tip of the stage. You rarely see that anymore...a camera angle that inconveniences the camera man. It's a great shot...Mick looks like a superhero...taking up the whole screen.
+1 on the Who Kilburn DVD...that is one of my top favorite DVDs ever.

If you can read region 2 DVDs you can find it for less than €15...

The Who Live at the Isle of White. INCREDIBLE! Great camera work and the sound is fantastic. Probably one of the most scorching versions of Young Man Blues. And an epic version of Water. Well worth it.
