The Best Live album

What are some good live albums/cds you own? Good sound is a nice bonus.

You may put down whatever you want such as "Get your ya ya's out", but are there some maybe we haven't all heard about yet?

The best I have bought lately is Delbert McClinton, "Live", a 2 CD set of a concert in Norway. Just excellent blues big band. I mean this album just smokes, Oh yeaahh, with excellent sound to boot.

Minor correction to Lokie: The Dead were no longer using the Wall of Sound PA in 1977. At the time of that deservedly-famous Cornell show, they were playing through the reinforcement system operated by Bill Graham's FM Productions. If your tape is off the board, as opposed to an audience recording, it doesn't really matter.

If you like "Goin' Home" from Woodstock, I recommend you check out the album Undead by Ten Years After. Not sure if it's available on CD. Side one features two songs, "I May be Wrong But I Won't Be Wrong Always" and "Woodchopper's Ball", both of which are an absolute tour de force of Alvin Lee's particular style of playing. This is live and was recorded before Woostock and before the band headed in the completely different direction of Stonehenge and whatnot. I was fortunate enough to see them at Fillmore West just a few weeks before Woodstock. Great stuff!!
