How about recorded "Live" music

[moldyoldy]

I'd like to add Little Feat - Waiting for Columbus. A legendary Live Album!

I agree! I played the album almost exclusively for 2 months after it was released, THEN got to see them do it live in KC. Lick for lick, note by note, the live performance matched the recording I already knew by heart, including the Tower of Power horns! Probably one of my most-played recordings, and definitely my favorite concert. Sure do miss the Fat Man.......

I got two favorites live albums (Cd's). 1) Zappa/Mothers - Roxy & Elsewhere and 2) Mighty Sam McClain - Joy and Paine.

Zappa/Mothers for the humor and fun they had on stage, the "liveness" of the sound, and it is recorded well to. The Mighty one for the extreme good sound that really makes you feel you are in the room he is playing.

Of course the music is very good to. (In my ears)

The Zappa/Mothers album was mostly recorded live Dec. 10, 11 & 12, 1973 at Roxy, Hollywood.

Joy and Paine was recorded live during a tour in Germany at "Moments" in Bremen Oct. 9, and at Town Hall, Detmold Oct. 11 1997.

For those of you not having these albums, GO GET E'M!

This is a great thread as is (the other). Could they not be combined and cleaned up if need be?

Lets keep the suggestions rolling in. I just picked up Etta James "Blues To The Bone" CD and its great. Not a bad cut on it and very well recorded.

I also picked up Joss Stones Live DVD "Mind Body And Soul Sessions". I would pass on this unless your a hard core fan. The quality of the performance and recording is so-so. I like the studio cd much better.

Hello Jim and Hjames,

thank you for the tip.
@Jim: I'm still using the LP version of the soundtrack.

May I kindly remind of the concert in Madison Square Garden 20.October 2001 which has been broadcasted worldwide.

The elderly Who played at their very best. Their was a good mix of the band and the audience. When they finally played "We wo'nt get fooled again" they were fully appriciated by the audience and the Who showed that they are best on stage.
The Rolling Stones in Madison Square Garden had a professionel perfomance as usual.

Relating the Stones I rememeber a concert in Hannover June 1998. The CD "No Security" - with recordings mainly from Holland I suppose - gives a very good impression of this in my opinion wonderful concert.

I recently got a DVD of David Sylvian and Robert Fripp: Damage - Live at the Nakano Sunplaza in Japan on 10/26/93. Also features Pat Mastelloto on Drums, Trey Gunn on (Chapman) Grand Stick and Michael Brooks on guitar. Very fine performance - nice DVD as well .... Found it on ebay - doesn't seem to be an American release ...
Of course - The Concert for George DVD is great stuff, as is the Cream Reunion show at the Royal Albert Hall.
