Growing up in the 60's and 70's was the height of double live vinyl and the double feature at the movie theater. I'm listening to before the flood - Mr. Zimmerman and the Band. After listening to side one it flips to four, that's just not right.
Nobody's mentioned it and it's not the "Greatest" of all time by any means. But the Rare Earth's Live Album was played to death on my player in the early 70's. (It's the one that looked like saddle bags)
Can’t believe nobody has mentioned George Benson’s Weekend in LA. True 1-4, 2-3 records and well recorded. Yessongs was a triple so cant be 1-4/2-3 obviously. Frampton is fantastic-saw him live a couple years ago in the first row center and got the album cover signed now hanging framed in my office.
Waiting for Columbus has always been my "stuck on an island" album. I like ABB at Fillmore East better, but I will always laugh when the bar begins to sing along. Or "checking your oil". Will remind of the days when I could check someone’s oil, all right. Or, I am still Willin.
Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East--This version of Stormy Monday has the best live back-to-back (organ in the middle) guitar solos ever recorded. Kinda hard to play as well...unless you are Duane and Dickie, that is...
Nothing wrong with most any of the others listed here as well...pretty good cross-section of musical styles, tastes, and genres.
