Favorite Live Album

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok.. Easy one.. What is your favorite live album & why?
I have several. "Yessongs" being way up there for me.
"Exit..Stage Left" by Rush is also a favorite.
One that holds a special place for me is Blue Oyster Cult's "On your Feet Or On Your Knees", just cuz I was in the audience at the Long Beach Arena, where some of it was recorded.

Whats yours??

Blue Oyster Cult's "Extraterrestrial Live".

Oh yeah, the reason....got to meet Buck, Eric, Allen, and Danny (Miranda) a few years back. My wife put Allen in a near-headlock so she could talk to him. Just about scared the poor guy to death.

The Who-Live at Leeds It's just What Live Rock and Roll should be
The Who-Who's Last. Great Sound. They really rip up Twist and Shout

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers- Pack Up the Plantaions. Just wow.

My thoughts exactly.

That's looking at it from a rock and roll bass perspective. If I were looking from the guitar side, it would be Jimi's Band of Gypsys.

Level 42's "A Physical Presence" is definitely up there, as are Donny Hathaway's Live albums. Jill Scott's live album is terrific and so is Trouble Funk's. See - I can't name just one.
