Media Center>The Greatest Live Albums ever recorded. Who ya got?
scho63 05:09 AM 04-23-2020
I realize that bands like the Beatles had no real "live" albums and it started around the late 70's - early 80's.

So who has the greatest LIVE albums?

I'll start with the (3) that made the most impact on me:

1. Kiss ALIVE!
2. Frampton Comes Alive!
3. Ted Nugent Double Live Gonzo!

Maybe it was the "exclamation points" that did it for me! :-)

What live stuff rocked your world? :-)

EDIT: Bootlegs prior to real LIVE albums don't count. Having someone steal Hendrix before he ever made his own live album doesn't count.

Right before "Turn the Page" on Live Bullet, Seger goes "This is from Back In '72 also...it's about being on the road."
You're right, I stand corrected. I never saw that album ever before, and I owned 4,000 rock albums and owned and operated a record store for almost 10 years and a mail order online record store from 1990 until 2005. There hadn't been much in rock I hadn't seen, and you have winner. I just read about that album, it reached only #188 and then immediately faded in obscurity and went out of print. When I owned my record store it was from '81 through the '88, and that's when customers would come and ask, where get I get Turn the Page, and by then Live Bullet was the only answer.

I just read that in 2005, shortly after the reissue of Smokin O.P.'s, there were rumors of the album to be reissued onto a CD. Seger denied these rumors saying that he did not like the vocals on the album and probably will not release it.

His early stuff is good, I remember hearing 2+2 on the radio and buying Ramblin Gamblin album when it came in '69 right before I joined the Army.

Someone mentioned Iron Maiden Live After Death - I will have to go back and re-listen - I remember not being to impressed by it. I am a loving fan and saw them live back in the day on Killers, Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind and Powerslave. Excellent shows! Yes I am 57 years old and lived in Memphis TN at the time. Go Rock 103 FM - Memphis Coliseum baby :-)
Oh Pantera live was incredible as well - R.I.P. Dimebag D!

After moving my albums around for almost 40 years, in 2011 when I made my last move, I gave away or sold all 4,000 of my albums. At the time since DVD's became popular in 2003 I starting collecting concert DVD's. I did keep my 800 CD's but now, I never play them, or even the 350 concert DVD's I've collected. Not since about 2012 when I got my first smart TV and paired it with youtube.

Since 2012 I've saved about 6,500 concert videos into about 45 music files of all differing kinds of music. It doesn't cost a penny and every week I go on youtube and find new videos and Friday night I play about 3 hours of music for my wife and me.

I'm now up to a Samsung 75" TV and my Sony 5.1 amp and my old stereo system is all connected, and it's like a live concert at home. I don't miss the albums, or even the CD's, they're in the garage where they don't get in the way. To me nowadays, if I don't see the band while hearing the music, I don't get the full effect.

Here's a link to my library of 45 music folders, just scroll down to 'playlists' and click on show more.

The "best" live recording ever....is sort of a little misleading. What I mean is recordings from the 60s 70s and early 80s can't be judged with the 90s-2000s fairly. It's a helluva lot different on a 16 track tape (or even 8 track 3/4 inch tape) than it is digitally recorded. Microphones are a thousand times better - recording equipment the same.

I don't know....just a thought.
