The Black Crowes thread got me downloading some of their music on itunes.  That got me to some of their live stuff which I have been really enjoying.

 

Looking for recommendations.

Rush - Exit Stage Left is one of my favorites. I had it on vinyl, but when I finally bought a CD player, it's the first CD I ever purchased.

I almost put this in the forgotten albums thread.

But this is probably my favorite and would fit well into the OP's Black Crowes rotation

Todd Snider's "Near Truths and Hotel Rooms" is a great record.  Way better than any single studio record he's made, IMO.  His personality comes out a lot more, and the in-between-song stories are entertaining as hell.

Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out is a great live album.  And dare I say, the only Stones live album worth a damn.

I can't find the whole thing, but Henrix's set at Monterey is killer:

And this is a true fav.  I never get tired of listening to it:

I love Cheap Trick, so "At Budokan" is the correct response.  However, jimmyjazz already listed it, so I'll mention two other CT live albums, "Music for Hangovers" and "Silver," both of which are worthy, esp. the former.

I love "How the West Was Won", but Page did go back and overdub some of the guitars to cover some of his mistakes.

That's pretty common in "live" albums, actually.  For example, it's a running joke that Live and Dangerous is part studio album due to all the overdubs.

Maybe the record that had the biggest influence on me as a little kid was The Secret Policeman's Other Ball.  Sting, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Phil Collins, etc.... mostly doing stripped-down versions of their songs.  As a kid, listening to album rock on FM radio, there just wasn't any forum where I heard rock songs presented that way.  It made a huge impression on me.  I think I wore our two or three cassettes before buying it on CD as an adult.

Despite @Chad Fuck feeling to the contrary, this is the Stones' best live album (Paris and the El Mocombo Club):

Mick Taylor Stones are best Stones.  

But that's a debate for another thread.

Until this post, I just assumed you dipshits didn’t consider this to be a live album.

 

It so goddamn good. Have long had it digitally but found it on vinyl at an estate sale in my neighborhood a few weeks back for $4. Didn't waste a second picking it up. In retrospect, I should've grabbed the David Allen Coe that was there too for $4 because I didn't recognize it. No telling if it might've been worth something.

Knopfler and Emmylou (two of my all time favorite artists to begin with) - All the Roadrunning

Patty Griffin - A Kiss in Time (her performance of Nobody Crying on that one is perfection).
