Unplebbed
Most of his live output is pretty essential
PLEB - PLEB LIVE

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Pictures at an Exhibition
The Sound - BBC Recordings
The Doors - Live In Detroit

Primus - Suck On This
Cheap Trick - At Budokan
The Who - Live At Leeds (listen to the whole thing in order - the Tommy section is on a separate disc, you need to move it to after A Quick One)
Paul McCartney - Good Evening New York (this is a bit more of a personal pick for me, it's not as defining as the other two but live Paul shows are great and worth going to if you enjoy his work, this is the closest you're gonna get to the real thing; also it has Billy Joel singing I Saw Her Standing There which is nifty)
>>74002132
MEME
RAP
JAP
CRAP
otokotachi no wakare
>>74002208
>>74002319
If we're talking absolutely essential, Roxy, Fillmore East, and I suppose Make A Jazz Noise and Best Band You Never Heard all deserve a mention.
I personally love the second Road Tapes album.
>>74002204
>>74002283
Seconding, also I think Live Seeds by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds is a really "successful" live album in that it improves on a lot of the songs. Same with Robyn Hitchcock's Gotta Let This Hen Out.
The Who - Live at Leeds
>>74002849
Oh, and The Yellow Shark of course.
>>74002852
live at stubb's and live in toronto are great too
>>74002276
Why not just the complete live box of Coil?
>>74002865
Philly '76?
Anyone who's a cLOUDDEAD fan should seek out the Peel Sessions with Boom Bip, and then perhaps the Themselves and Subtle live albums.
Peel Sessions in general are amazing, my favorite being Soft Machine.
Outside of just listening to the album, I highly recommend seeing the full movie of Stop Making Sense from the Talking Heads. Live music performance at its finest.
>>74002898
I mean, that's probably the most essential of the new live series, since it has Bianca.
>>74002935
Stop Making Sense is a great album to listen to while you get blotto.

Sometimes I think that nobody likes, or even knows this album, and the non-live version is in my top 5.
Is my taste just that awful, or is it that fucking mediocre?
