Satriani - Live In San Francisco

Blind Guardian - Live
Blind Guardian is a power metal band, if you can get into that style, kinda Iron Maiden-meets-Queen (at least in the studio you get the Queen vibe, lotta vocal & guitar layers). Live they sound fantastic, and no, it's not post-concert production that makes it sound so good.


Enchant - Live At Last

Enchant is a prog band a la Marillion/Rush/Saga/Dream Theater. Since the show was a live internet-cast, I don't think you get any post-production to hide any flaws at all. What you hear is what the audience got :)

I have a few, all available on DVD.. First, go buy .38 Special's "Live at Sturgis" DVD. Southern fried boogie never sounded so good. Then go and get Meatloaf's "3 Bats Live". Not only do you get to hear Paul Crook & Randy Flowers lay out some insane RAWK, you get to feast your eyes on Meat's latest female lead, Aspen Miller. Not only does she have pipes, she definately turns heads.

Well, if you expand it to video, I've gotta put in a plug for the Black Crowes "Freak & Roll ... Into the Fog." And not only because you can see the back of my head in a couple of places.

Since you like many styles of music:

 

4-Way Street - CSN&Y

In Concert - Derek & the Dominos (not the inferior "Live at the Fillmore" version)

Live at the Fillmore - The Allman Brothers

Live - Alison Kraus & Union Station

The Three Pickers - Doc Watson, Earl Scruggs, Ricky Skaggs

Moonflower - Carlos Santana

Live In Paris - Diana Krall

Live at Budokan - Cheap Trick

A Real Blues Summit - B.B. Kind and others

Live At the Regal - B.B. King

Austin City Limits - Stevie Ray Vaughan

Stephen Still Live - Stephen Stills

 

Now I'm going to go back through the thread and see if anyone else made any of these recommendations.:)

Kiss alive 2 kills. You can watch crossroads on the internet. Chris if you ever want to try slide check out Derek Trucks. He's awesome.

Great suggestions here. Aerosmith live bootleg is great if it is still around. Very raw.

Hooker + HEAT which is a double-CD with John Lee Hooker and Canned Heat!


Muddy Waters with Johnny Winters. HARD ...... all great LIVE CDS

 

 

Both of the above are (a) fantastic records and (b) studio albums -- albeit 'live in the studio SANS overdubs.

 

'Zat what you meant?

Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous is a great album, but not even close to live, almost everything was redone in the studio.

 

Anyway......

 

Super Session - Mike Bloomfield/Al Kooper/Stephen Stills

Almost anything from the Grateful Dead's Dick's Picks series

The Name of This Band is Talking Heads

Full House Live - J. Geils Band

It's Your World - Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson

Live Art - Bela Fleck and the Flecktones
