801 Live takes the cake foresure, a true classic, stands the test of time the best as well.  I commend who ever started this poll because it cuts through all the bull (Rush, ELP, etc..).  Let's face it most of that stuff sounds cheesy, unless you are a long time huge fan who has been desensitize to it at this point.  Geddy Lee's howl is a cheesy Zep rip, plain and simple.

Anyhow great poll and great bands.

Genesis: 'Seconds Out' quite possibly is mine, although the choice is rather limited.

Although I'm a devoted Genesis fan, I believe Yessongs is the best!

I miss a lot. Magma Live? How about live albums of Gong? Of the choices given I vote Van der Graaf Generator - Vital. Of course the Japanese pressing as double CD with all 10 tracks. Not the best of sounds but what fantastic music. Had the Magma Live album of 1975 and Gong Est Mort - Vive Gong been on the list, I would have had a hard time to choose.

Although I'm a devoted Yes fan, Seconds Out is best.

Of the albums listed I'd choose "Vital" or 801, but there are certainly many others I miss on that list. How about Guru Guru or Kraan Live? Jean already mentioned Magma. "Live Herald" by Steve Hillage is excellent too.

Renaissance - Liive at Carnegie Hall and Camel - A Live Record are the best by far.

Only Once in a Lifetime by Runrig (not prog) beats them out of all the live albums I've heard. Seconds Out is the best of those listed, buts it's a poor selection.
