is this the greatest live band of all time?

Sam here again and the reason i bring up live performances is the fact that a recording of a live performance does not effect you like the actual live performance does and what if you used frequencies coming from the speakers to harmonize the music with the audience brains creating an experience where everyones brains including the band would align to the same single frequency creating a supernatural connection that would forever change the lives of those in attendence.

I saw Joe Cocker three times spanning the late 70’s to the early 80’s, and to to say he was inconsistent is a wild understatement. One absolute dud, one OK performance and one which ranks up there with anything I have ever witnessed.
                 
Everything meshed together in a perfect synchronicity which left me with tears streaming down my cheeks.

In retrospect, I think his alcohol and pharmaceutical consumption played a major part in the standards of his performances during this period.

Anyone heard Phil Collins in concert live ? Great !

tomreep -- Thanks for bringing up that Lou Reed Sweet Jane cut.  Truly one of finest rock numbers ever committed to vinyl.  It also blew my mind that an avant-garde/art house guy like Reed would next be heard heading up such an effective, powerful, straight-ahead rock band.

Supertramp in the 70's/ 80'shad the best sounding show I've ever heard. Great concert but, the Boss puts on the best performance.
