#1 Fillmore East - Allman Brothers

Any other live albums are a distant 2nd at best. Live at the Fillmore East is the best, hands down and the technology was primitive at that time as well.

Denver 11.17.97-cosmic funk masterpiece

Japan 6.14.00- psychedelic, shroom-inspired (the band ate some at setbreak) jamming

West Palm Beach,FL 11.2.96- featuring a half hour groove based take on Talking Heads' "Crosseyed and Painless" and a very powerful "Antelope"

Chicago 6.18.94- All star versions of "David Bowie","Tweezer" ,"You Enjoy Myself", and Zappa's "Peaches en Regalia"

Island Tour 4.3.98- Solid funk show from top to bottom. Legendary half hour jam of Ween's "Roses Are Free"

Van Morrison~It's Too Late To Stop Now
The Band~The Last Waltz
Allman Brothers~Fillmore East
MuteMath~ Live at The Tabernacle Theatre
RHCP~ Live @ Slane Castle

The last two are newer, but still have that "something" that just makes me enjoy them every time I hear them.

The first three speak for themselves.

Nirvana unplugged.

Alice in chains and pearl jam unplugged were also good.

Don't know too many unplugged albums, but Nirvana is my favorite.

Whenever a thread like this comes up, my mind freezes. I'll think of some after this has dropped to page 11.

I agree with most of the lists but, if you are into Daft Punk, check out Alive (2007). Great live Album from them. Must have been an insane show.
