10 Live albums probaly not in your collection but should be

Foghat Live
One More From the Road
both are great 70s style double live albums.

 

Lou Reed Live actually has a better song selection than Rock and Roll Animal (from the same show), but doesnt have the famous Sweet Jane intro.

 

A bad night for the audience as well.

 

That was pretty amazing. Thanks for posting it

 

1969 Velvet Underground live

 

Gary Numan - Living Ornaments '79
Japan - Oil On Canvas

 

viva roxy music
go live from paris
between nothingness and eternity
waiting for columbus
rock of ages
procol harum live in concert
santana/buddy miles
801 live
mott live
time fades away

 

Electric Light Orchestra - The Night The Light Went On (In Long Beach)
10cc - Live and Let Live
Lighthouse - Lighthouse Live!
Focus - At The Rainbow
Wings - Over America
Rolling Stones - Love You Live
...these would be in my top 10

 

The thought has struck me too, but it must have been an exiting gig!

 

No rankin, just some that I really listen to more often than most others

Led Zeppelin - BBC 1971
David Bowie - Santa Monica
David Bowie - Nassau Collisseum
Crowded House - Farewell to the World
Queen - Rainbow 1974 (used to be my favorite bootleg)
Rolling Stones - Brussel 1973

 

No it doesn't. In fact it does not have Rock and Roll, nor Heroin either. So those three classics not included could never made it better than RR Animal in my book.

The track list is what makes this album great. Record buyers seem to agree on this.

 

Ok I'm going to pull out some odd ball titles, enough of this Columbus and Over America stuff.

June, 1974 - Cale, Eno, Nico, Ayers
King Curtis - Live at the Fillmore West
Nils Lofgren - Authorized Bootleg
Black Sabbath - Live at Last
Wishbone Ash - Live in Tokyo
Donovan - Japan Tour '73
Beck, Bogert & Appice - Live in Japan
Sweet - Strung Up
Willie Nelson - Honeysuckle Rose

 

I have the Scorpions one and the Thin Lizzy....Scorpions Tokyo Tapes is simply the best live album ever!

 

Good pick on the obscure Wishbone Ash Live In Tokyo. I like the BBA Live In Japan as well.

 

All deep in the collection. The Nils live promo ruined his solo career because it was better than any studio album he was able to come up with. Just a great sounding raw live session with Al Kooper on piano I think.

 

Having my entire collection on hard drives and server has made it so much fun to crank out the obscure things that used to be rarely played. Now if I want to hear 801 Live it's as easy as typing in 801 and clicking on that title. Mix it with June '74 Eno and it's a blast of avant-rock live!

 

I only have the Scorps, Lizzy and Zappa in my collection, and I won't lose any sleep over NEVER having the rest in my collection...

< Gedo - Jittoku Live
Grobschnitt - Solar Music Live
Magma - Live Hhai
Curtis Mayfield - Curtis Live !
Ange - Tome VI
Amon Duul II - Live in London
Jane - Live at Home
Ted Nugent - Double Live Gonzo
Pat Travers Band - Live! Go For What You Know
Embryo -Live

 

REO - You Get What You Play For (wonderful trash)
BOC - On Your Feet or On Your Knees (badly dated)
Derringer - Live in Cleveland (promo)
Crusaders - Scratch (Roxy LA)
Clash - Here to Eternity

 

More odd ball titles...

Tim Buckley - "Live in London, 1968"
Made in Sweden - "Live at the Golden Circle, 1969"
Fairport Convention - "House Full: Live at the Troubadour, 1970"
Tony Joe White - "That on the Road Look: Live 1971"
Hookfoot - "Live in Memphis, 1972"
Dr. John - "Ultrasonic Studios, New York, Jun 11, 1973" (grey-zone)

 

Ozzy - Mr. Crowley live EP
Chicago - Live in Japan
Pat Metheny - Travels
Aerosmith at the Cal Jam 2
Alice Cooper - Live in Detroit '71 (box set bonus)

 

I own Clapton's Rainbow Concert on CD, and Beck's Live at Ronnie Scott's on DVD, but that's it....
The only other one on the list that I'd be interested in would be BB King.

 

live at leeds/john martyn
USA

welcome to the canteen
sweet child

 

Good choices Footlooseman.

 

I've got #5 and #10 and I wouldn't mind having #4 as well. As for the remaining seven, I'm not really sure I should have them in my collection. In all likelihood these are nice albums and some of them I might even like, but somehow the idea of obligation in relation to music seems alien to me. Whatever albums I have, I want to own voluntarily, without anyone pushing me.

 

"Vicious" is pretty vicious. I rate them about the same. Live is strangely lower on the critical totem pole despite having equal quality performances. Must be the famous intro as you say,
