Best Live Album Ever...

Inna: I wasn’t aware this was open to other genre but, if Jazz and R&B are open then I’d like to suggest:

Miles Davis & John Coltrane “in Stockholm 1960 complete”
Mighty Sam McClain “Joy & Love”

Sorry, Mighty Sam McCLain "Joy and Pain", not Joy & love

great choices so far. Lindisfarne, I really like your sleepers Uriah Heep and David Live. David Sandborn on David Live adds a nice element. I would add Yessongs (still my favorite Yes album) and Roxy Music Live from 2001. My sleeper is Rare Earth Live from the early 70's. Hard to find, but one of the best.

Santana-Lotus.

My top 5 (or 6)

Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison

Lou Reed -- Rock and Roll Animal

Little Feat -- Waiting for Columbus

The Band (and friends) -- Last Waltz

Nirvana -- Unplugged in NY

Roxy Music -- Viva

Feel like I'm missing something obvious....
