Hard one this, especially as I haven't heard as many live ones as some have. I want to hear the two Flower Kings cds next, they are supposed to be very good. However, from the ones I have heard:

 

GENESIS: SECONDS OUT (One of the two 'must have' live albums of the later seventies, along with Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy)

GENESIS: LIVE (Which I think I prefer now to the above, it is more intimate, and better recorded, as in the vocals and instruments are closer to the mikes, methinks.)

Can't say YESSONGS by YES as I didn't like the sound quality on this one. (Nor some of the songs!)

PINK FLOYD: PULSE (This is a good one indeed, worth a listen or three!)

RUSH: A SHOW OF HANDS (Very good this, but all the live Rush cds are good, though I am not as keen on  EXIT:STAGE LEFT, the sound is not so good, nor the choice of songs.)

But my favourite, at the moment, is:

PORCUPINE TREE: COMA DIVINE (Superbly produced, excellent sound quality, and a wonderful performance!)

But there will be more! (How about START THE FIRE: RPWL, that is supposed to be top notch!)

:) :) :)

Oops, almost forgot...
 
GENESIS: LIVE ARCHIVE 1 (Now this may be my favourite Genesis live album. Worth it just for the entire live Lamb performance on discs 1 & 2, and what a performance! Not to mention disc three with Supper's Ready on, my fave version, with Gabriel singing it!)
 
And...
 
STEVE HACKETT: (Pretty much any of his live albums, and there are quite a few, but especially the live acoustic performances, simply stunning!)

Surely "The Great Deceiver", the four disc King Crimson set with almost the best line-up ever - if only Muir was part of the experience!
