Van Morrison - It’s too late to stop now

It may be the best live album ever… solid gold

Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense

A close second

one of my faves

He also has a great recording called Van The Man done at a radio station c. '71. Not sure if that qualifies tho.

My other fave:



Historically significant for two reasons:

1. Contains very different versions of VU standards like "Sweet Jane" ("Heavenly wine & roses...") & "New Age"

2. This helped keep the VU name alive as it was released at a time (1974) when VU records were very hard to find, even as imports. Their albums would not be reissued in tUS until the mid 80s

I generally don't like live albums but this is a notable exception and the video is great as well. It's one of the rare examples of where I like the versions on the live performance better than the studio version.

I like Van Morrison and will look into that one.

I don't know if it's an album or not but as an ELO fan I really enjoyed the video of Jeff Lynne's ELO: Wembly or Bust a lot more than I thought I would
