It's seminal, but the Eagles "Hell Freezes Over" and AIC's Unplugged are 2 that I have above it.
Just on Hell Freezes over, you have the acoustic masterpiece version of Hotel California, as well as the definitive versions of Pretty Maids All in a Row and The Last Resort.
For AIC's Unplugged, you have half a dozen songs that exceed the album version and the show itself is a haunting, more or less final goodbye from Layne Staley to AIC's fans.
Queen's "Live Magic" (which combines some July 11 and 12 1986 Wembley songs with much of their August 9 Knebworth show, and a couple from Hungary) is pretty damned good, too.
The ABB Live at Fillmore and Nirvana Unplugged are way up there, too, though. Fine choices.

listening to Nirvana and AIC at age 35 is a different experience than as a teenager. AIC has survived. Frankly, nirvana I find terrible outside a few songs.
That eagles unplugged album was the first dvd I ever bought. It is great.

Heresy. The Unplugged movement was a blight on these types of bands. Would unplugged is shitty shite - compared to Would? which is one of the greatest songs of all time.

I think almost every song on the album is the best recorded version they did.
Wasted Time, Heart of the Matter, New York Minute (I know technically Henley) Life in the Fastlane, Take it Easy.
About the only thing I've heard better is Desperado.
