I cheated, I know. Let me know - I can cook up another baker's dozen easy.

 

I never liked the drug song, Lady Day or Rock and Roll, but I love Satellite of Love, Vicious, and especially Sad Song, from Lou Reed Live. IIRC, doesn't Vicious have a Hunter/Wagner epic intro too?

 

A full show from the Running on Empty timeframe would be nice

 

please,a complete Friday Night in SF - Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin and Paco DeLucia

 

"Vicious" does have a Hunter/Wagner intro, but it's not as epic as the "Sweet Jane" one. "Heroin" is probably a case of you had to be there, I much prefer the VU version.

I think it's been said that Hunter and Wagner are in switched channels on Live compared to Rock N Roll Animal.

 

Why does the OP assume none of these are in anybody else's collection, and what is the OP's argument for why they should be?

 

Got a 'ton' of live albums, I prefer 'live' albums, but I do need to get the following, someday ...

1. David Bowie: Moonlight tour '83 (saw him in Perth - gotta get that allbum)

2. Velvet Underground at the Factory (Oh boy, IF you can FIND it...there goes the used price!)

3. 1969 Velvet Underground live

4. Uriah Heep LIVE

5. Jeff Beck: Live at Ronnie Scott's

 

One of my favorites is Drive-By Truckers' Alabama Ass Whuppin. Kind of an odd one - it was recorded before they blew up .

I got 1,4 and 6

 

There are quite a few good to great live albums added as a bonus to the expanded editions of regular studio albums, so they tend to be overlooked.

Velvet Underground - "Live at the Gymnasium '67" (on "White Light/White Heat" deluxe)
Traffic - "Live at the Fillmore East '70" ("John Barleycorn Must Die" deluxe)
The Who - "Live at the Young Vic '71" (on "Who's Next" deluxe)
Marvin Gaye - "Live at the Kennedy Center '72" (on "What's Goin' On" deluxe)
Man - "Live at the Roundhouse '73" (on "Back into the Future" expanded)
Allman Brothers Band - "Live at Winterland '73" (on "Brothers & Sisters" super-deluxe)
Pink Floyd - "Live at the Empire Pool, Wembley '74" (on "Dark Side of the Moon" experience)

 

I have never really been a fan of the live album
But there are 2 that I listen to quite a bit!!
Mahogany Rush LIVE and Vic Vergat No Compromise are 2 blistering live sets

 

Who has the time these days to listen to more than a starting two-three minutes from a given album? There is so much music to check that there is really no time left for listening!

 

bitches brew/copenhagen 69
live at leeds/with tommy
second winter/4/17/70
santana III/7/4/71
eat a peach/6/27/71
stand up/carnegie hall
self portrait/isle of wight 69
recorded live and positive vibrations bonus discs

 

I don't think the Who played better than they did at the Young Vic shows. They really peaked during that era.

 

They shouldn't be in mine.

That "Thin Lizzy" live album is lame as I recall (and I'm a huge fan)

 

The one you want is "The Peel Sessions". I haven't heard the latest BBC box stuff, but Peel Sessions is great.

Merle Haggard - Live at Billy Bob's Texas: Motorcycle Cowboy. Merle's band is smoking hot and great tunes.

 

Planet Gong -Live Floating Anarchy
Ozric Tentacles - Live Underslunky
JANE-Live At Home
SAxon-The Eagle Has Landed
Castle Donnignton Monsters of Rock 1980
Barclay James Harvest - Live Tapes
Hawkwind ‎– Live Chronicles
Angelo Branduardi - Concerto
Colosseum - Colosseum Live
Rory Gallagher - Live Europe

 

Re: Tuning while playing....


Earl Scruggs - Earl's Breakdown

 

Graham Parker & The Runour - Live at Marble Arch (genuine UK only polygram promo)
Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Live at the Bottom Line (Epic promo only)
Carpenters - Live at the London Palladium
Talking Heads - Live on the Warner Bros. Music Show (genuine promo pressing)

Now how is that for some truly great and interesting ones you should have but do not?

 

The Ten Years After live stuff is great. They are one of my favorite bands.

 

Man live were great! Almost any of their live stuff is worth getting. I enjoy the Maximum Darkness expanded album w/John Cipollina as well.

 

You should hang the lp's around your neck when you go out in public so everyone will know how special you are. That's what I do.

 

I might not own them yet, and posting my wishful thinking. But when I have them all I will make sure to let you know it.

 

Post the photos on Facebook.

 

The Graham Parker and Southside both had official releases, so those shouldn't be that hard to find.
