Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band Live Bullet Kaleva Jan 2014 #1

+1, nt. LumosMaxima Jan 2014 #2

'White Album,' 'Blonde on Blonde,' 'Exile,' 'London Calling,' 'Live/Dead,' 'Live Rust' (Neil Young), nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #3

The White Album Mr.Bill Jan 2014 #13

Out of my list I'd probably go with either 'Blonde' or 'Exile' because they're both such towering nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #15

They're all good picks. Mr.Bill Jan 2014 #17

IIRC they were pretty much recording all their individual parts in separate rooms by that point. nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #18

And Ringo Starr's... whatever Art_from_Ark Jan 2014 #23

Electric Ladyland aint_no_life_nowhere Jan 2014 #4

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness- Smashing Pumpkins Gravitycollapse Jan 2014 #5

Also, Refklektor has been out for a couple months. You can't call it a classic so soon. Gravitycollapse Jan 2014 #6

The Allman Brothers: Eat A Peach bluesbassman Jan 2014 #7

Forgot about the Allmans! Need to pick up the 'Fillmore East' one now that I have a turntable. nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #19

The Who- "Quadrophenia" Doc_Technical Jan 2014 #8

Yes!! The Who really rock ailsagirl Jan 2014 #10

I'd go with the expanded 'Live at Leeds' or 'Live at the Isle of Wight' (both double CD's) myself. nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #20

"Live at Leeds" is phenomenal ailsagirl Jan 2014 #39

'Tommy' kicks so much more ass live that it's not even funny. nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #40

Exile on Main Street kwassa Jan 2014 #11

My first pick as well!!! pink-o Jan 2014 #55

Cream Wheels of Fire. Mr.Bill Jan 2014 #12

Second that! n/t DFW Jan 2014 #14

'Wheels of Fire' and Floyd's 'Ummagumma' would both be fantastic as standalone live albums. nomorenomore08 Jan 2014 #16
