Here are ten more live albums and where they rank:

Retrospektiw (#11)
Fairfield Halls (#32)
Seconds Out (#35)
Yessongs (#36)
Two For The Show (#40)
A Live Record (#41)
Welcome Back (#59)
Ricochet (#67)
Bursting Out (#68)
Space Ritual (#73)

For what it's worth, there are no pre-90s live Rush albums in the top 100. Shocked

Mainly because of the second disc I voted for Camel's 'A live record'. Beautiful recording.

Retrospektiw, but the Tangerine Dream is an incredible one as well.  What Colin said is truth though.

Caravan is worthy of at least one vote though I'm having a tough time separating it from Magma, Camel, TD, & Hawkwind

Seconds Out, just before Bursting Out and Welcome Back My Friends... Collins sings the old material much better than Gabriel IMO Instrumentally this album is peerless. The Cinema Show, Dance on a Volcano/Los Endos side is sheer heaven!! Supper's Ready is sung brilliantly by Collins; he sounds even more theatrical than Gabriel and he sings the s**t out of it.
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

Magma over Caravan over TD over JT.

Three of my favorite lives here: Camel, Magma and Yes, plus the Tull live which is not bad.
I'll wait for Renaissance at Carnegie Hall to pop-up. 

It's sad that Colosseum Live is not in the top 20 lives.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Went with ELP.  The '73-'74 tour was the peak of their accomplishments.  If nothing else, the super sped up version of Tarkus, extended AquaTarkus, Keith's Piano Improvisations and CP's drum solo in Karn Evil 9 were jaw-dropping achievements.  

Come and see the show Bowdown

I voted for Caravan - Live at Fairfield Halls 1974.  Tough choice though.

Camel's Live Record is THE best live album ever.
 
All the others are excellent except Tangerine Dream, Magma (which are pretty bad) and the truly atrocious Hawkwind album.
A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

I concur with your assessment of Seconds Out, and the order afterwards of Tull and ELP.

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...
