Bullet in a Bible at MK
My posted Vids of John Mayer and Jason Mraz were to inform you lot of thier Live albums.
John Mayer - Any Given Thursday.
Jason Mraz - Tonight, Not Again.
Bloody Alchemy. One year at Reading our neighbours turned up,put up a gazebo with a generator and played it non stop for at least 24 hours then someone killed their generator.
Wasn't me, honest.
Listening to Rory Gallagher Irish Tour '74 on one of the recommendations above. Amazing, you've made my day!
Might try the Townes van Zandt one next.
[quote=binners ]Best live double album? Whitesnake - live in the heart of the city.
Absolutely sublime blues rock. It's a bittersweet experience listening to it though. You wonder, completely baffled, how they managed to go from this to churning out the absolutely bloody god-awful hair-rock shite they we're responsible for vomiting out in the 80's, complete with the most cringeworthy videos known to man
why don't you ask the multi-millionaire David Coverdale just where it all went wrong? ;D
INRAT... Bob Dylan at the Budokan
Love the Neil Young offerings especially Live Rust. The Black Crowes have recorded a lot of gigs at the Fillmore over the years, the DVD Freak and Roll is good and if you do I tunes there are 6 great shows available. Each night finishes with a trio of covers, Beatles one night, Neil Young one night, The Band, The Stones, Blues standards etc.
no one's mentioned 'Here and There'
EJ at his best.
Just remembered Joe Cockers Mad Dogs and Englishmen. Great singing and a fantastic band.
Surprised it took 5 posts before someone mentioned Alchemy Dire Straits. Always been my fave live double album.
Also, yes, Live In The City Of Light. Right up there, too.
Now if we're talking *single* live albums, It's gonna have to be:
Peerless. Absolutely peerless.
I forgot one of my all time fav live Jazz albums, the very first live double album ever released way back in 1938.

I'd love to hear Pete Long recreate the experience down at Cadogan Hall on the 14th Feb but it's 400 miles away from me ๐ฅ

Well, if it's open to live albums in general,
Five man acoustical jam - Tesla
Really gets the feel of being there at the gig, mistakes and all.
Mr Woppit got it right, and I'm ashamed of the rest of you that it took until nearly the end of the third page to get there.
