Alaska Darin Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 KISS - Unplugged. Spectacular, and a huge smack upside the head to anyone who claims they ain't musicians. Ted Nugent - Great Gonzos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconator Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Rush - Different Stages. Very personal album for me, since I was at the Chicago show where 2/3rds of the material for the 1st 2 discs came from. Still the best concert I've ever attended!

geggytah Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 counting crows VH1 storytellers....great acoustic set of some very familiar songs. as always, adam duritz pours his heart out in this ten song collection. good stuff...go get it if you don't have it. i'll second DMB's red rocks concert. probably my most listened to CD(s) ever. haven't listened to them in a while though...damn mp3s make getting music too easy. its too much work to load a cd into the cd player these days.

HOF Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Nice. Agree with the Heartbreakers and the Stooges choices. Johnny Thunders is a personal favorite of mine, and the Stooges, well what can you say. Metallic 2xKO has the extra tracks left off the KO release, including a haunting version of "Open up and Bleed." I'd add the Ramones-It's Alive, a two record set recorded on New Years eve 1977 in London...a record that everyone should own, Ramones fan or not. It pretty much showcases why they were the greatest live band of all time. Also, Lou Reed- Take No Prisoners, recorded at The Bottom Line, 1978. Lou is particularly on with his stage schtick in this one (his bantering with the crowd is hysterical) and the band is phenomenal. The versions of Satellite of Love and Coney Island Baby are the best I've heard...I want to play football for the coach... 209162[/snapback] Great Ramones Album! I think that it's an import! I saw them live several times and found them boring for some reason! The Clash they were not!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I'd really have to choose between five...and I can assure you virtually no one on this board will agree with any of them. (3) Harry Chapin: Greatest Stories Live. Features outstanding versions of "30,000 Pounds of Bananas," "A Better Place To Be" and "Mr. Tanner." 209096[/snapback] I like that album. One of my favorites in my collection. For others: Tragically Hip - Live Between Us The Cure - Show (and the "singles" CD Side Show) Peter Gabriel - Secret World Live The Smiths - Rank Barenaked Ladies - Rock Spectacle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can read about it here: http://www.digitalrushexperience.com/datab...ecordingID=1196 Since you were there you may remember the startling feedback during "Driven" that prompts the "Shake it off Alex" that you hear from a fan on the Different Stages version. This version comes with feedback and all, one of the best boots from the Test for Echo tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninMinn. Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I'd really have to choose between five...and I can assure you virtually no one on this board will agree with any of them. (1) The Main Event: Frank Sinatra Live at Madison Square Garden. The intro by Cosell is a beauty, and he really does a great job on "My Way," though he never truly cared for the song...ever. (2) John Hiatt Comes Alive At Budokhan. Features a rockin' version of "Thing Called Love," which he wrote for Bonnie Raitt. (3) Harry Chapin: Greatest Stories Live. Features outstanding versions of "30,000 Pounds of Bananas," "A Better Place To Be" and "Mr. Tanner." (4) Genesis: Seconds Out Suppers Ready version unbelievable... (5) Blues Brothers: Briefcase Full of Blues. Highly underrated album with outstanding musicians, and such classic renditions like "Shot Gun Blues," "B Movie Box Car Blues" and my personal favorite to end the concert: "Flip, Flop and Fly."

I always prefered Johnny Cash's San Quentin concert to the Folsom Prison one - the Legacy cd reissues on both are excellent. Two more that I would add to the list: Bob Dylan - Live 1975. The 2 disc Rolling Thunder recordings from Canada and Massachusetts - amazing stuff. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr. - The Rat Pack Live at The Sands. Always liked Hot Tuna's Double Dose, I know somebody had mentioned that one before. And I'm surprised nobody gave it up for James Brown Live at the Apollo - great stuff.
