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

I'll add a couple of recent additions, both courtesy of Lindsey Buckingham. His solo "Live at Bass Hall" and Fleetwood Mac's "Live in Boston". Both are beautifully recorded collections of (IMHO) fantastic rock songs perfomed by monster bands.

The Mac in Boston disc should dislodge the notion that this band went soft and corporate when Buckingham and Nicks signed on. It gets absolutely ferocious when Buckingham's guitar takes center stage.
