1970's Live Album Checklist And Conversation

Hollies Live (1976).

 

You know, I was reading this thread and trying to come up with some and maybe it's old age, I don't know. Just hittin' a brick wall after a couple. Really love the ZZ Top and BOA and I just picked up a used copy of Robin Trower Live. The Trower was a big favorite for me back in the day.

As for the Grand Funk, I don't know how I missed that one. One of the first live albums I ever owned.

By the way, I love live albums and this is a pretty cool thread. Looking forward to seeing more that I missed.

 

Got another good one ...

Blue Oyster Cult - On Your Feet or On Your Knees

 

Rush - Different Stages which includes Hammersmith '78

 

Yes I've been meaning to get that but it slipped my mind. Thanks for reminding me

 

I haven't seen The Rolling Stones Love You Live mentioned (Edit - I stand corrected; the OP listed it). Not the greatest live album by any stretch of the imagination but it does have the El Mocambo side. There are also official downloads for Brussels Affair (still the best Stones live disc even if it did not use most of the preferred early show) and L.A Friday. There's also the live 1971 stuff from the Deluxe Sticky Fingers and there's also the Marquee Club and Live In Texas DVDs which have CD versions.

 

Recorded/released in 1985 - not a 70s live album...

 

Kinks: "One for the Road"

Released 1980 but recorded (mostly) 1979...

 

Chicago - Live in Japan. Some prefer it to their Carnegie Hall set.

 

Wheres the love for...

Deep Purple -Made in Japan
The Guess Who - Live at the Paramount
Van der Graaf- Vital
Zappa Live in New York

 

You've got Bob Marley and the Wailers - Live! on your list, so you may as well add the almost-as-iconic double-LP Babylon By Bus [1978]

 

The ghosts of Steve Marriott and Greg Ridley respectfully ask you not to associate Humble Pie's "Performance Rockin' the Fillmore" with KISS.
Thank You

 

Well said.

 

The Association Live
10cc Live & Let Live...

 

I don't recall this favorite being on the list.

Ten Years After - Recorded Live.

 

LOL sorry.

 

Forgot about 10cc. Theres another one, a BBC collection with the original 4 piece that worth hearing.

 

Maximum Darkness also has John Cipollina from Quicksilver Messenger Service on it but I like all of them.

Keep On Crinting - The Liberty/UA Years is a great place to start. It is a 2 cd set which contains a lot of their best material.

 

Tastiest choice thus far then Roadwork! Love them Winters!

 

Johnny and Edgar do a nice version!

 

Rare Earth in Concert 1970 I think it was. In the realm of pop rock Neil Diamond's Hot August Night 72?

 

....numero uno!

 

Jethro Till - Bursting Out

 

The BBC one was never an official release I don't believe, just a recording from their BBC TV appearance (although maybe it did appear on the recent box set ?) but if you're thinking of the foursome on the King Biscuit Special CD, now THATS worth revisiting time and time again...

 

J. Geils: Full House 1972
J. Geils: Blow Your Face Out 1976

Tangerine Dream: Ricochet 1975
Tangerine Dream: Encore 1977
