I nominate this as I always found the production on the studio albums lacking. This is the real deal and headphones on you get really sucked into it.

Pink Floyd - Pulse for me.

Isn't that Woppit and his merry men ?I nominate this ... This is the real deal
The Alchemy Live by Dire Straits. Also the live side of Ummagumma by Pink Floyd, but that's not a live double album, strictly speaking.
Metallica - S&M for me
[img] 
[/img]
Space Ritual - Hawkwind
Awesome shout on the sound.
Frampton comes alive
Led zeppelin the song remains the same
Ben harper. Live from mars
Another for Alchemy here, very tight band with great tunes
[b]durhambiker[/b]Metallica - S&M for me
+1. ALways good for a long car journey 😆
Alchemy is super.
Love the GnR Live Era album, though.
Especially for the epic jam session version of Move to the City. "Ladies and gentlemen, the band!"

Apart from the obligatory drum solo
I was going to say Cream, Disraeli Gears but that's one album live/ one album studio so doesn't count (good shout on Allman Brothers above though).
I have Alchemy and Babylon by Bus in my vinyl collection and I'll raise you by The Who, Live at Leeds 8)
Black Sabbath - Live Evil.
Bloody love this album.
Red Hot Chili Peppers live in Hyde Park is brilliant.
I can't believe no-one has gone for Lizzy!

Ramones It's Alive by a mile, pure genius. Oh to have been at that gig
Alchemy is a great one.
Also Decades of Agression, Slayer.
Interesting that the big live double albums all seem to be from an earlier era; it's almost as if with the advent of stadium venues the gigs have got smaller! Or is it down to the fact that you can get more onto a CD than you can on a single piece of vinyl?

Seeing as not all those albums up ^ are double albums i'll include some of my my favourites, not [i]rock[/i] music so perhaps controversial for a live album.

I'm heading to the Paradiso (Amsterdam) to see Nils Frahm in march…..gonna be quite a trip 😉
My second choice. Once again you get the full oomph of the song and not the tinny studio production.

+1 for UFO.

Decade of aggression by slayer.
Can't understand why people like metallica when slayer are so much better.
Live in a world full of hate by sick of it all is also a goodun.
If you only listen to one Van Morrison album (and you really need to hear more) then make it this one from 1973. Nobody does emotion like Van.

No excuses, it's here:

Two words: You and Tube.
Mano Negra: "in the Hell Of Patchinko" is one of my favourite records ever.
Also despite the mixed reviews I like "stage" by Bowie.
And the first side of G'n'R's 'Lies' of course.
I thought Ummagumma too - showing my age there. But since it's only half live, how about?

Titties 'n' Beer

Soundtrack to teenage years for me.
EDIT showing my age too!
Springsteen Live at Hammersmith 1975
First live album I ever heard (in fact first Queen album as well, and is still amazing).

Big Black
Sound of Impact.
Not a double album, but has double the impact.

I was going to say Queen's Live Killers, not as over engineered as the Live Magic album.
Good shout on the Big Country album.
Has Flashy been on to mention Thunder "Live" yet? Still the best British band I've seen live
Soundtrack to teenage years for me.EDIT showing my age too!
Unfortunately anyone talking about double vinyl is showing their age!
Didn't include this as I'm not sure it came out on vinyl, but hey.
It has the worst cover ever but it absolutely rocks.
Thing is i hate Hawkwind,all that cold on the edge of time crap.
I was even there when they recorded this but left early as i hated them so much. 😥
