Top five live Rock And Roll Albums

SOME live albums are indeed a cash-grab, but as many do manage to capture the vibe of an artist's performance - like most of what lenmc2964 began this thread mentioning. 

Lucinda's Fillmore recording is a perfect example of how a live performance can energize a song. "Change The Locks" is an exercise in tone shift - the studio version strikes me as almost timid while the live version seems to emancipate.  It's a riff that Crazy Horse could be proud of as well. 

So far as 80's hair/metal bands go...well...

Live jazz recordings are an obvious exception - this is where those guys live. 

So many great records mentioned, so many I would agree, so many I haven't heard and will listen (Tidal!)

One to add . . . Leon Russell Live.

Leon never stops, just like when I saw him in his prime. Non-stop rock'n'roll . . . it almost wears you out. Not like his studio albums. Unfortunately, sonics aren't great.

A top 10 would include;
Leon Russell
Bob Seger

Not necessarily in best to worst but you can't go wrong here:
who live at Leeds
Allman bros live at FM
little Feat Waiting for Columbus
Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous
Porcupine Tree Anesthetize
Peter Frampton -  Frampton Comes Alive!
James Brown- at the Apollo

Iron Maiden - Live after death
The Allman Brothers Band - Live at the Fillmore East

Deep Purple - Made in Japan
The Micheal Schenker Group - One Night in Budokan
Little Feat - Waiting on Columbus
Todays favorite isThe J Geils Band - Live Full House.
Probably really in my top 10 but it is the release date anniversary today so it makes my top"5"
