What is your favourite live album?

[Cheap_reaper]

Of all the live albums that you have heard by bands what is your favourite?

A few that stick out in my mind are Pantera-101 Live Proof, it's an awesome album that's pretty much a greatest hits collection, all delivered with the precision of the band.

Another one I like is Pennywise-Live at the Key Club, it really brings the energy of the music and the show to you.

I can't stand Phil's vocals on the live Pantera album, but I'm getting a bit bored of Pantera at the moment.

The best live album ever:
Iced Earth - Alive in Athens

closely followed by every Iron Maiden live album.
and Deep Purple - Made in Japan

oh and Vio-lence (live at Slims 2001) (disc 2 of Eternal Nightmare rerelease)

[Lounge Fly]

Live After Death-Maiden is probably the best i own.

Ziggy Stardust-The Motion Picture

[Davemeistro]

The best live album ever:
Iced Earth - Alive in Athens


This is a true statement.
This is the only band that has made a live album in which I prefer the live versions more than the studio versions

Proof:
Live (http://media.putfile.com/iced-earth-live)
Studio (http://media.putfile.com/iced-earth-19)

[YouEnjoyMyself]

Allman Brothers Band At Fillmore East

The fucking truth.

[Mount_Happy]

AC/DC - If You Want Blood

I fucking love that album

[Mr Chainsaw]

The Allman Brothers- At Fillmore East
Deep Purple- Made in Japan
Talking Heads- Stop Mking Sense
Jethro Tull- Aqualung Live
Queens of the Stone Age- Over the Years and Through the Woods
Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington- Ella & Duke at The Côte D'Azur
The Mars Volta- Scab Dates

[YouEnjoyMyself]

OAR is like that. Amazing live (Any Time Now) but their studio versions seem to be missing the jam factor that they give off live.

Dude I totally agree!!

I've seen them twice live. Second show was this: http://www.archive.org/details/oar2004-12-30.mkh800.flac16

If nothing else, download CGOP....AMAZING!! (they jam into "No Woman No Cry")

[k_tull88]

Ben Folds and WASO : Live In Perth
Cream - At The Royal Albert Hall
Pink Floyd - Is There Anybody Out There?

Man, Maiden have waaaay too many live albums. They release one after every studio album, totally unnecessary :err:

[cushlinkes]

My Top 5 fav live albums:

Is There Anybody Out There - Pink Floyd
In The Flesh - Roger Waters (also have the video of it)
The Return Of Mr. Blue Sky - ELO (also have the video of it)
All The Worlds A Stage - Rush
Live At Wembly - Queen (This is the best one, this concert is freakin' awesome. I have the video for this too.)

[temp100]

My fav is - Iron Maiden - Live After Death

Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous
Allman Brothers Band At Fillmore East
Iced Earth - Alive in Athens
Deep Purple - Made In Japan
Camel - Coming of Age
Queen - Live at Wembley 86
Alice in Chains - Unplugged

[taste_u]

Why was I IP-banned?

I mean, Mingus At Carnegie Hall is also good.

[DerekSmalls]

Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous
Bingo.

Iron Maiden - Beast Over Hammersmith is awesome too.

[reigenborn]

Pink Floyd - P.U.L.S.E.

[Playsatan]

either

RATM - grand olympic auditorium
or
The WHo - live at leeds

[damnfreeloaders]

Halford--Live Insurrection
Judas Priest--Unleashed in the East
Iron Maiden--Live after Death

[wrathchild]

RATM - grand olympic auditorium

The live tracks on 'Live and Rare' are so much better than that album.

[DerekSmalls]

Halford--Live Insurrection
Judas Priest--Unleashed in the East
Iron Maiden--Live after Death
I haven't heard the Halford one, but the other two are definitely great contenders :cool:

Another addition I would like to make is Blind Guardian - Live.

[FGWB]

Slayer - Decade of Aggression

[ThePope]

Black Label Society - Alcohol Fueled Brewtality
Men at Work - Brazil

[Cheap_reaper]

BLS-Alcohol Fueled Brewtality is an awesome live dvd, the guy is a god.

[WesMont22]

Wes Montgomery - Smokin at the Half-Note and John Coltrane's Village Vanguard sessions.

[Playsatan]

The live tracks on 'Live and Rare' are so much better than that album.

i have that as well, but obvs "grand olympic etc" flows better since it is a full concert. Live and Rare is a bit of a mish mash, but its still v good

[Rev'd_Flasher]

UFO - Strangers in the Night.
Motorhead - No Sleep 'til Hammersmith
Two absolute classics that I didn't see mentioned.
Everybody else has already listed my other faves (Live After Death etc).

[strikeandburn]

Pink Floyd - P.U.L.S.E.
That is my favorite.
Marilyn Manson - The Last Tour on Earth
is also really good.
