Best live album you've ever heard?

This is certainly inspired by the album that is kickin' it very LOUD here. I have many many live albums by every one from A-Z, but NONE come close to this one except Johnny Winter And Live, or the Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East. The Stones' Get Your Ya Ya's Out has to be the best live rock'n'roll album ever. God bless Mick Taylor. I live in a concrete block house, and it is still shakin'. If any of you know of a better live recording than these, please fill me in. Thanks, Tom

A second for Alice In Chains
I agree 100% with Boa2 this CD has an incrediable real presence in your system. If you forget about the two dimensionality this recording surpasses some good vinyl recordings.

You know, Surfgod, I didn't much care for live CD's until
1) we put together our SET/horn system; and
2) I heard that Alice in Chains--Unplugged

I also really enjoy the Neil Young Unplugged CD as well. And the other one that has scary live presence:
Caetano Veloso--Fina Estampa

And I can't fail to mention: I just bought the remastered version of Bob Marley Live, and about every three seconds I get the chills running down my spine. I'm convinced that man is still alive!

Hi Boa2
Another live CD that puts magic in a dull digital world is Richard Thompsons' two letter words live 1994. The engineer gets the vocals right along with a beautiful acoustic guitar. I have the Neil Young Unplugged and that also is fine, BUT I think nothing beats the Alice In Chains Unplugged. Will look for your recomendations.
Thanks
