We have plenty of favorite album threads, but I searched and didnt see any for a favorite live album, And since most of the albums im spinning now are live albums, I thought it would be appropriate to ask, And try to give specific reason why its your favorite, makes it more interesting
![]() I have a combination of 3, Blind Guardian's "Live", The production is amazing, the songs sound even better live, and the reactions from the crowd just give me goosebumps, especially on "The Bards Song - In The Forest". Secondly it would be Between The Buried And Me's "Colors Live". The performance is so spot on you might not even know it was a live album, and there is an added energy to the music when its played live that you cant capture on studio recordings. Lastly, it would be Iron Maiden's "Rock In Rio". Maiden songs are just made to be played live, the reactions from the crowd that bruce gets are just spine chilling, To hear 250,000 people sing "Run To The Hills!" is just an experience you wont forget ![]() |

Muse-Haarp That's actually my most hated live DVD. I was at the gig and it was awesome and I love Muse but the DVD is dire. The camera jumps around so much it actually makes you feel sick. It's a shame bands feel the need to do this ![]() My favourite live album is Nirvana - Unplugged In New York -------------------- Gear Guitars:- Caparison Horus Snowcloud, Parker Nitefly M, Parker Nitefly SA, Gibson SG, Parker P10e, 40 Year Old Spanish Acoustic Amps:- Framus Ruby Riot 2x12" stack |

My favorite is also "Blind Guardian - Live". I had to buy a second copy of the record, as the first one was massacred by the build-in car cd player after spending something like a year in it:D

Not completely a live album because a lot of edits were made, but I think it still fits this category:
I love Vai's "Alive in an Ultra World" -------------------- www.youtube.com/Wallimann
