We got to see this concert at the Fox in Atlanta. It was awesome.

Thanks to everyone who shared. I’ve got plenty of listening material from this thread.

So many classic concerts by various bands but for me first thing that came to mind was Metallica Seattle 89. The energy is just off the charts.

If I borrowed Mr. Peabody's WAYBACK MACHINE and counted the times I played all my live albums, I'm pretty sure Yessongs would come out on top. But then, it's also one of the oldest ones. From a somewhat newer time it would be Live From Nowhere In Particular by Joe Bonamassa

Surprised this hasn't popped up yet. The soundtrack was awesome.

The version of No Quarter on this album is the finest moment in rock and roll history.

Oh yeah this version is the best No Quarter I’ve ever heard.

How could my senile old brain forget Donald Fagan's New York Rock and Soul Revue Live At The Beacon. Great performances by Boz Skaggs. Michael McDonald and Phoebe Snow included my fav version of At Last. She just kills it. Had no idea she had such pipes since Poetry Man was the only song of hers I knew. A few more special gueat as well. Then of course there's Donald doing his solo and Dan material. The guitarist Drew Zing I believe was his name was on fire. A crime it wasn't filmed. I have seen some really bad quality audience shot clips.

I seem to recall years ago watching a live performance of the New York Rock and Soul Review on TV...

I hope you're right and somehow it resurfaces.

Maybe this:



Edit: not the one above. This might be the one I was thinking of:

Frampton Comes Alive - I am still inspired and what a class act Peter Frampton is. I cannot even count how many times that I've sat back and listened to this entire album.

ZZ Top Fandango - Billy was simply on fire ... the tasty tone and licks.

Pantera - “Official Live:101 Proof” for me. I had that on repeat for days!

Best live album of all time... not possible to list. A list of all time epic live recordings I think the thread has done a great job listing them.

Not the same performance as the album but most of the same people. I'll be watchimg them tonight for sure. Thanks a ton.

Phish - A Live One
Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Live Rust

 

[L-Plates]

For me, Yessongs - many happy memories with this (triple) album

After listening to Toys, I’d like to throw “Honkin on bobo “ into the mix. It was sort of like Aerosmith said “we don’t have enough new songs, let’s just grab some old standards and make an album”. It rocks, and it’s on dvd!
