Favourite Live Albums.

[Bovril]

To me live albums are much better than the original dreary mainstream releases for the masses, here are my favourite two.



Lots of anger from Jake on this one which made it a classic from the era followed by:



The original that was released was crap but Live "I know its over" is beyond doubt a triumph.

Here we go, in no order:
Alchemy
Paris
Double Trouble Live
Seconds Out
Alive (Daft Punk, none of that Kiss muck)
Strangers In The Night
Live Rust
Live After Death

All cases where the versions on here are streets ahead of the studio versions.

Bob Marley and the Wailers Live at the Lyceum is just about the best live record ever.

 

[Ste1969]

The Who

I’m not a fan of Rank despite being a big fan of Moz and the Smiths.

I like listening to The Cure live at Bestival 2011.

 

[Ballymagash Blue]

Paris au Printemps - PiL

Dylan at Budokan

 

[bavarian blue]

Deep Purple. " Made in Japan"

Great live album so many great tracks.

Great shout. Though as a bit of a Minds addict, I’d direct you to the recordings of the tour before, Sparkle In The Rain, for definitive live versions. My favourite track is New Gold Dream and they butchered it on City of Light.

The Doors - Absolutely Live 1970

Alchemy is amazing and I defy anyone not to listen to the guitar solo on Sultans of Swing through headphones at top volume. Just brilliant.

And Rank, by The Smith's is also fantastic.

Deep Purple. " Made in Japan"

Interesting shout. By the criteria of improving on the studio versions, that album disappointed me; Child in time studio version better; Smoke On The Water, studio version and solo far better...
