List some of your favorite live Jazz recordings

Jeff Beck’s "Live at Ronnie Scott’s" is more on the Fusion end of Jazz with some R&R and R&B thrown in. It’s a fabulous testament to his ability to play guitar, especially with a great band featuring Tal Wilkenfeld on bass and Vinnie Colaiuta on drums. The DVD version is fun to watch too.  

Thanks for all the suggestions -- keep 'em comin' !  

@curiousjim

Yeah; me too.

@jazzaudiophilewannabe

I’ll have to check out that J. Redman.

@markmoskow

I wish I’d bought the Mosaic Charles Tolliver box set before it went out of print!

I love the studio albums by the Miles group with Wayne but I actually prefer the live recordings of the group before Wayne replaced George Coleman.

If you haven’t already, check out the "companion" to McCoy’s "Passion Dance" -- "Counterpoints: Live in Tokyo".

I like both Cedar Walton and Clifford Jordan and will seek out the album you mention.

@rmdmoore

"Full House" is another excellent live Wes album with W. Kelly.

@pdreher 

Lots of (to me) unfamiliar artists on your list-- will check them out.

I'll recommend just one and it happens to be pretty much the best live jazz recording in my collection. I use this disc to blow away friends who have never heard a good system. One of my coworkers a few years ago sat in the prime seat and was literally speechless until he stuttered, "I can't believe this."

Wow! I have a lot of listening to do here. One question, CD or LP? I do not have a high end system, just one I'm happy with (and can afford).

a fun live album is Benny Goodman "Yale archives"
