What's everybody's favourite live Albums? One of my personal favourites would be (After Brussels Affair of course) Jerry Lee Lewis at the Hamburg Star Club. I've only just discovered this album much to my shame, after reading about it in his excellent biography 'Killer'. It was recorded with the Nashville Teens (Them of 'Tobacco road' fame) as his backup band, and only a few months after his baby son died in an accident. This explains why his performance was so intense, as he was throwing all his energies into his performance. Talk about music as catharsis! And to think when he recorded it people thought he was a washed up old-fart, yet he was only 28!!!
Don't even try to download these tracks by the way, I tried and only got 2 tracks. However you can buy the album on Amazon for less than £5. A real diamond!

Madison Square Garden?, I bought that today, believe it or not. But I don't think but you can go wrong with Elvis live. I don't think there's a big market for Elvis boots though, but I don't know.

You're right - I think his later shows were too patchy, but that MSG captures the post-sixties Elvis beautifully.

*****I don't think there's a big market for Elvis boots though, but I don't know. ****
HUUUUUUGE market. As big as the Stones. There are audience recordings--which are only good if it's a damn good performance. Bootlegs of Elvis during the 70s is where it's at. Since he didn't do any concerts in the 60's cuz of those movies, the 70s were his performance years.
The amount of soundboards from the 70s is large--very large. Here are two sites to keep an eye out on Elvis boots:
Jordans Elvis World
http://jordans-elvis-world.com/implibindex.htm
Real Audio available for bootlegs
For Elvis CD Collectors
http://www.elvis-collectors.com/
News about Elvis boots all around the world
I prefer "An Afternoon in The Garden"--the matinee performance at MSG rather than the evening show titled "AS Recorded at MSG"

How about Humble Pie-Rocking the Fillmore?
The new release of Led Zeppelin's 1972 shows in LA?
Outside of the Stones, I'm not a huge fan of live albums. I do like The Black Crowes Live from last tour, although it is almost too overdubbed by Rich.

Ya Ya's Out is the best, then, not counting any Stones or related albums and in strictly alphabetical order:

- Emerson, Lake and Palmer: “Welcome Back my friends”
- Faces “Coast to Coast”
- Fleetwood Mac: “The Boston Box”
- Frank Zappa: “Make a Jazz Noise Here”

- Frank Zappa: “The Best Band you never heard in your life”
- Frank Zappa: Sheik Yerboutti
- Frank Zappa: The whole “You Can’t Do That On Stage Anymore” set of 12 CDs
- Genesis: Seconds Out” Probably one of the best ever
- Grateful Dead: “Live/Dead"
- Humble Pie: “Rocking the Fillmore”
- Jefferson Airplane: “Bless Its Pointed Little Head”
- Jethro Tull: “Bursting Out”
- Jimi Hendrix: Any… all
- John Mayall: “Jazz Blues Fusion.

- Led Zeppelin: “How the West Was Won”
- Miles Davis: “Live at the Fillmore East, March 7, 1970”
- Peter Gabriel: “Plays Live” and “Growing Up Live” but it’s a DVD
- Pink Floyd: London 66-67 “14 hours Technicolour Dream Extravaganza”
- Plastic Ono Mothers (Zappa & John Lennon): “Live at the Fillmore”
