Anyone here love to collect live albums by their favorite musical artists?

If so, what ones do you own, and which are your favorites that you don't own?




I own....

Live After Death - Iron Maiden
A Real Live Dead One - Iron Maiden
Rock In Rio - Iron Maiden
Live - AC/DC
Live Killers - Queen
Live at Wembley - Queen


I want Alive I, II, and III by Kiss, Live At Donington by Iron Maiden, the upcoming Dead on The Road by Iron Maiden, Live Bootleg by Aerosmith, On Fire At The Bowl by Queen, and High Live by Helloween.

I don't usually buy live albums unless the band is awesome live (i.e. Led Zeppelin). I have How The West Was Won (on CD) and The Song Remains the Same (on vinyl). I own a few Pearl Jam bootlegs too.

I don't collect them, but some good ones I can name off the top of my head would be both Delicate Sound of Thunder and Pulse by Pink Floyd, Live From Mars by Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, and The Concert in Central Park by the Dave Matthews Band.

Pulse is a great live disc set, and The Wall live is way better than the studio version. The Led Zeppelin BBC sessions is also a great live set as well. You gotta love that 25 minute Dazed and Confused! :p (though thats from HTWWW, ~18 on BBC sessions)

The Ramones' "It's Alive" is outstanding. It's quite possibly the best live performance I've ever heard, and I'm definitely getting the original vinyl.

Aside from that, I'm partial to live Pistols rarities... Specifically, their mid-1977 sets.
