I wasn’t aware of the Hammill one, but I have a feeling I’d like it best. I’ll seek it out.

I've got a number of Peter Gabriel live DVDs and I love them all, so I have to go for PG.

Not familiar with that specific live Bowie album but have plenty of his live stuff from across the years.
Don't really know any Peter Hammill live stuff.
But I really, really love Peter Gabriel Plays Live. I Go Swimming indeed !

The only other tune from that tour that's never been on an album is John Has A Headache, and I'm not sure how many times they played it.

Much of Bowie's live stuff blows (Diamond) Dogs. However, the Live Santa Monica '72 album is probably the best you'll ever hear from when Ziggy was really cooking.  For this exercise though, I chose Gabriel.

1."Introduction" 0:13
2."Hang On to Yourself" 2:46
3."Ziggy Stardust" 3:23
4."Changes" 3:27
5."The Supermen" 2:55
6."Life on Mars?" 3:28
7."Five Years" 4:32
8."Space Oddity" 5:05
9."Andy Warhol" 3:50
10."My Death"Jacques BrelEric BlauMort Shuman5:51
11."The Width of a Circle" 10:44
12."Queen Bitch" 3:00
13."Moonage Daydream" 4:53
14."John, I'm Only Dancing" 3:16
15."Waiting for the Man"Lou Reed5:45
16."The Jean Genie" 4:00
17."Suffragette City" 4:12
18."Rock 'n' Roll Suicide"

You’d think I’d choose Bowie, given he’s my favourite artist, not just from this poll, but in general.
Stage, however, is possibly my least favourite of the official Bowie live releases. It’s still great, but it’s not greater than either of the albums in this poll, which makes it an easy third place.

I’m really not sure which of the other two I prefer, though. No vote yet, until I’ve listened to both again, back to back.
