The Best Live album

"Bless it's Pointed Little Head" - Jefferson Airplane
'Specially like Donovan's "Fat Angel" -very peaceful.

Bauhaus - 'The Sky's Gone Out', Double Album with extra live album , (Press The Eject And Give Me The Tape)-Label:Beggars Banquet. It's got 'The Spy In The Cab','Kick In The Eye', Stigmata Martyr' and 'Bela Lugosi Is Dead (UNDEAD)'. It's the kind of music that keeps me together!

A few of my favs:
Sam Cooke Live at the Harlem Square Club
Alison Krauss/Union Station Live
Roger Waters' The Wall Live in Berlin
King Curtis Live at the Fillmore West
Live Stock by Roy Buchanan

If you like Dave Brubeck you have to own Bravo Brubeck, there is something very engaging about his music and this is a terrific performance with very nice song selections.

I too very much like Eva Cassidy's Live at Blues Alley and her amazing voice.. but just prefer the style of Brubeck so I list it first.

A few that weren't mentioned

John Hiatt "Hiatt comes alive at Budokan" a great rocking version of some of his best songs. Great rock.

Doc Watson "Doc and the Boys" and Doc & Merle Watson "Live and picking" a two-fer CD which will recharge your musical batteries.

Bill Evans "Waltz for Debby" part of the Village Vanguard live series.

Townes Van Zandt "Live at the Old Quarter" my first introduction to how a great songwriter can hold an audience

Richard Thompson "Small Town Romance" only accoustic though, and his live electric is the best.

I can't say any is best but depending on the mood they are great.
