Just heard this on Tom Petty's Buried treasure, would be fun to cover some day.

I love albums. This is my top ten list of live albums that I grew up with. In no special order

1. Unleashed In The East - Judas Priest
2. If You Want Blood - AC/DC
3. Song Remains The Same - Led Zeppelin
4. Foghat Live - Foghat
5. Speak Of The Devil - Ozzy Osbourne
6. Double Live Gonzo - Ted Nugent
7. Captured - Journey
8. World Wide Live -Scorpions
9. One For The Road- The Kinks
10. Exit Stage Left - Rush

yes there were many great live albums made over the years and I know I left out some great ones like Bob Seger and TSBB Nine Tonight , but the ones I listed were the ones I listened to the most and just always sounded good. I have other live albums from other bands like Dokken but the "live" performance just didn't come through very well on their Beast From The East recording, for me that is.

Also I know there were albums that were basically live recordings in the studio but I'm keeping my list to records that had the audience in the recordings.

David + David - "Boomtown" (1986)

One of the most criminally under-rated albums of all time:

King Crimson - "Lament" (1974)
John Wetton was a rock god

Billy Joel - "All for Leyna" (1980)
This album is amazingly produced. One of my all time favourite "audiophile" LPs to spin on the Technics deck.
