No

Definitely not in terms of the music but in terms of the impact probably.

If roots music (country, blues etc.) is your thing check out BB King live at the regal for an ace live album

YOU ARE AN INTEGRAL PART TO THIS ALBUM

fuck that album is amazing, definitely my favourite, followed by Hawkwind's Space Ritual, Bo Diddley's Beach Party and Townes van Zandt' Live at the Old Quarter

They edited in a lot of the audience clapping, particularly in Folsom Prison Blues.

I think most know there was editing and some studio work involved but I don't think that takes away from it being a great live album

Willie Weeks' bass solo on Everything Is Everything is the strongest aphrodisiac known to man

>>71026316
What wankery? That's what they tried to avoid and that's why this album is so widely praised.

Right up there with B.B. King live at Cook County Jail!

probably the best sound quality I've ever heard on any live album.
