I was doing some compilation mp3 cd's, including only 'legendary live album' or of any genre of rock, like 'The Allman Brothers at The Fillmore East', 'Live at Pompeii' from Pink Floyd, 'Made in Japan' from Deep Purple, 'How the west was won' by Led Zeppelin etc. So, one of the cds is gonna be prog 'legendary' live albums, It comes through my head: Yessongs, Genesis Live!, Live a Pompeii, Magma Live, The Great Deceiver disc 2, Exit stage Left... Any suggestions? -To be 'lenegdary' it had to be recorded in 70's or early 80's, and also 60's Thanks for yer help |

My favorite:
801 Live
And I can't see why the 90's ones can't be legendary. Two good examples:
Steve Hackett - The Tokyo Tapes
Porcupine Tree - Coma Divine Live ------------- Bigger on the inside. |
