“I confidentially enter Bob Dylan Live at Budokhan.”

There was another “… At Budokan” which essentially launched the career of a little-known band from Bloomington, IL

Good call on “Reckoning.” I’ve always enjoyed its electric companion “DEAD SET” just as much–but no love for SKULLFUCK? Anyway, since someone already checked “Waiting for Columbus,” I’d be remiss if I didn’t give Ozzy’s SPEAK OF THE DEVIL its deserved props. The Tommy Aldridge/Rudy Sarzo rhythm section is simply aflame, and Brad Gillis’ ultra-shreddy updates of Iommi’s riffs are smoldering.

But while we’re at it–I’m surprised no one’s mentioned King Crimson’s USA and all its progged-out weirdness. Definitely marked the very last time KC played Central Park. I’m sure that’s because their audience became more “selective” over the years.

And I’d think COL. BRUCE HAMPTON AND THE AQUARIUM RESCUE UNIT is classic by now, since it was released in 1991. A FINE live recording, that one.

Oh, and YESSHOWS is a double, YESSONGS is a triple.

Oh shit, I forgot to mention…THE Neil Young live album is Time Fades Away. The thing is amazing! Neil was a wreck during this period (71-72) and won’t authorize it to be released on CD, but it is may be my favorite live album of anyone.

Go ahead, listen to it… http://newmradio.muxtape.com/

all you Last Waltz (movie soundtrack) fans should be talking up Before the Flood, great live album, and before Manuel became a total zombie (R.I.P.). Allman’s at the Fillmore East. The new Neil Young Massey Hall release is pretty sweet as well. How the West Was Won shows why Zeppelin are the prototypical rock band. FIRE.

ooh, Waiting for Columbus, now that should be 2 or 3 behind SMS, but where’s the LAST WALTZ?

I confidentially enter Bob Dylan Live at Budokhan. This album caught a lot of flack for the standard shit that Dylans fans whined about, but this is the jam album and it propulgates.

I would also throw Little Feat’s Waiting For Columbus on here too, may not be Top 5 but definitely Top 10.
