drum roll.........#1 The Rolling Stones "Get yer ya-yas out"...the rest not in order The Who "Live at Leeds".....The Ramones "Its Alive".....The Plimsouls "one night in america"....Foghat "Foghat Live"....Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers "Live at Max's Kansas City"....Bob Dylan & the Band "The Royal Albert Hall Concert"....Motorhead "No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith"....Creedence Clearwater Revival "The Concert".......best wishes all

top 5 only:

Stones ya-yas
Dylan Manchester '66 (it wasn't at RAH)
Dead - Europe '72
The Band - Rock of Ages
Muddy Mississippi Waters Live

Ya-Ya's is the best - no question

I like the side of Love you Live with Crackin Up. "It's the bottom pincher from last night, watch out for yer bottoms, Keef"

Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.

NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

Rolling Stones: Get Yer Ya Yas Out
Rolling Stones: Stripped
Bob Dylan: Real Live... with no less than Mick Taylor on guitar. The 66 Albert Hall bootleg series is a close 2nd, also incredible.
Eric Clapton et al: Derek & The Dominoes Live... Clapton's very best work also!
Creedence Clearwater Revisited: Recollection... better than Creedence Live.
Neil Young: Live Rust and Weld
Grateful Dead: The Grateful Dead (one with Bertha)... this or Europe 72, this by a nose
Stevie Ray Vaughan Live at El Mocambo (VHS)... best guitar tape you'll ever see.
Red Hot Chili Peppers Off the Map (VHS), older tape but I like it even better than Live at Slane Castle, honestly
The Original Woodstock... what a gem, a piece of music history that fortunately was recorded.

and at least one great Jazz live album for you RS fans to start listening to some classic great jazz, try...

John Coltrane Live at the Village Vanguard, Nov. 1961.

Trane has so many great live albums: Live at Birdland is murder. Live at the 5 Spot with Thelonius Monk is Monk's very best tape (most of monks cds are yawners)... Trane's Live at Newport is fair, but I always come back to The John Coltrane Quartet at the Vanguard 1961, his very best IMO... but Birdland is a real close second, get 'em both.

love Trane as well - not even sure I could make a top 10 list of Coltrane live recordings alone....too many to choose from!

gotta throw in charlie parkers live at the roost '48-'49......coltranes live at the village vanguard complete recordings box rules!!!....nice to see some well rounded taste on this thread....best wishes

forgot Jerry lee lewis live at the star club, hamburg...i think '64.....great atmosphere....the crowd enhances this great performance.....the insane ivory tickler is on fire!!!! best to all

Creedence lives,

You like the Creedence Clearwater REVISITED live album better than either of the Creedence live albums with John Fogerty???

Wow!

We Agree on Coltrane!

Seriously... give Recollection a listen...

I'm a major Fogerty fan but I've seen BOTH FOgerty and CCRevisited prolly at least 4 times each over the past 7-8 years.

They are BOTH incredible concerts.

One big plus for CCRevisited is Elliott Easton on guitar... truly one of the best guitarists, most fluid, you'll ever listen too. The guy just nails and extends every CCR guitar line perfectly.

Plus the lead singer is just great...

Not knockin' JF one bit, but give CCRevisited's "Recollection" a listen if you haven't heard it yet.

Ya-Yas and Live At Leeds, with Lou Reed's Rock and Roll Animal as a close third. And when I say LAL, I mean the original 6-track LP. It's power was greatly diminished when they expanded it to 14 tracks.

I might - but what if John finds out?

please, don't forget Joe Cocker's "mad dog and english men" and "frampton comes alive II", + OF COURSE "love you live", "live licks" and "stripped".

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

I am surprised this one hasn't popped up yet at all... REGARDLESS of musical tastes, this double set ranks WAY up there as an analog-era live recording of the highest quality (has a little bit of overdubs, though, but still, what a stage band!!): "Roxy & Elsewhere" by the Mothers of Invention (DiscReet records, 1974)... smokes like #%$@!!

In no particular order -

2. Led Zeppelin - How the West Was Won.
3. David Bowie - Live 1974 (Remastered 2005 Edition).
4. Bob Dylan - RAH 1966 (Manchester).
5. AC/DC - If You Want Blood, You've Got It.
6. The Who - Live at Leeds (2 CD Deluxe Edition).
7. UFO - Strangers In The Night.

9. The Rolling Stones - Get Your Ya Yas Out!
10. Queen - Live at Wembley 1986.

------------
