Metallica’s S&M is a standout for me. It was so fresh and exciting and rich experience to listen to for the first time.
I like Joe Satriani’s live in San Francisco. He generally approaches live recordings as a unique experience so the songs and performance are quite different each time. He’s one artist I almost like his live albums more than his studios
Iron Maiden’s Fear of the Dark live versions are just another level in energy
Bjork - Vespertine Live
Every song seems like a slice of magic. It’s both perfect and naturally in-exact.
The Allman Brothers Band At Fillmore East
Do yourselves a favour and find a good copy, put on your headphones or whatever, and enjoy.

Now I will go listen to my copy and smile.
Thanks for making me think of this album.
Probably a three way tie among:
Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York Portishead - Roseland NYC Live Dave Matthews Band - The Central Park Concert
I also have a soft spot for The Complete Monterey Pop Festival
S&M - Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony
One of my top albums of all-time. James Hetfield's voice sounds better than on the studio albums. Plus an entire fucking orchestra.
