Classic Live Albums

Listening to one of my favorite live albums tonight.

Wish I had the whole show. Recorded during the 1984 tour in support of "The Top". Raw and dirty, rockin' sound to this record. They played like they have a chip on their shoulder. Love the aggressive take on "Killing an Arab". Listented to this all the time back in the day, especially on cassette. The cassette version included a collection of rarities and live tracks called "Curiosity - The Cure Anomolies". Very cool stuff. Takes me back. cool

What are some of your favorite live albums?

Some great picks here, most of which I don't have. Thank goodness for Spotify wink Think i'll do an ultimate live album playlist and add all the ones in this thread (that they have on Spotify)

This one was supposed to put bootleggers out of business - which it did, until The Boss went on tour again, LOL:

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
