I voted for Pink Floyd at Pompeii because of the mindblowing music (especially Echoes) and the wonderful geographic scenes and psychedelic images  !

I prefer PFM Piazza del campo (Live Italy 2003) above Live in Tokyo 2002 because of the warm interaction with the Italian progheads and the enthousiastic performance.

And I miss some splendid DVD's like Roger Waters with In the flesh, Steve Hackett with Once above a time (exciting rendition of Firth of fith), Roxy Music with Musikladen 74/75 (Eddie Jobson on his trasparent violin) and Los Jaivas with Alturas de Macchu Picchu (Minimoog and panflute)

For me its Live at Budokan by DT and Live at Pompei by PF, yet the story of dsom is very interesting and rush in rio is pretty awsome (or so iv heard on that one, must check RIR out).

Yes, this is the second poll I've seen which didn't allow only
one vote. I guess that makes it invalid.

When I was young I went to see Pink Floyd Live in Pompeii and David Bowie's The Man Who Fell to Earth on same showing

Pompeii is THE best rock concert video ever made!

Kansas' Device-voice-drum is a good show, Yes' Symphonyc live too.

Worsts: ELP - Pictures at an exhibition

Yes - Keys to ascension

(both for their amazing 'special defects')

The best DVD I own is Roger Water's In the Flesh, simply because of the set list. Waters has managed to pick most of the best Pink Floyd songs, spanning all his time with the band and some fine examples of his solo stuff as well. It seems that Waters' and my taste for Floyd favourites match to an amazing degree.
Other notable additions to the list would have been Marbles on the Road 2DVD by Marillion, Fool's Company by Fish, In Concert by David Gilmour and The Way We Walk - Live in Concert by Genesis (the pop songs can easily be skipped, because they've been put to the end of the gig and there isn't really too many of them to spoil the pleasure of enjoying the concert.)
From the list, which has several of my favourite DVDs, I chose Live at Loreley by Marillion. In fact I just bought it yesterday. In my inner fantasy world they would have played longer (the DVD is only 85 minutes), adding Pseudo Silk Kimono and the b-side of Misplaced Childhood, Grendel and Fugazi to the show, and the result would have been a perfect Fish-era Marillion show. The way it is, it's still terrific.

I voted for "Live At Pompeii". The collector's edition DVD is a must!

ELP - Masters from the Vault - an early concert from Belgium I think.


Posted By: tolstoievski
Date Posted: November 10 2005 at 14:12

hey! thanks for the votes ...

a lot of good music is missing, and i think "David Gilmour In Concert" is the first name there ... but i'm only human ...

 

hey, proctologist, another Flower Kings fan here ...

but i have to say it .. Secret World Live is the most complex concert i've ever seen ...

Pink Floyd live at Pompeii definitely has a vibe running through - I love the way it switches from Pompeii to Abbey Road and back to Pompeii again....

But, I'm going to vote for Marillion live from Loreley, basically because I grew up with this video.  I actually was at Loreley last year on the stage and it was a very bizarre experience standing there in the empty amphitheatre !!

You missed Yes' "Symphonic Live," which I think is the clear choice for anyone who has seen it.

That dvd is so damn funny.  Love the bit when the authorities are trying to move those hippies so Tull can soundcheck

Yes - Symphonic Live is easily my favourite music DVD of all time.

An honorable mention goes out to DT's Live at Budokan, mostly because of the incredible video/sound quality.

I chose Dream Theater's Live at Budokan, amazing set list.  Great camera shots of the playing along with inventive camera angles.  I would have chose Pain of Salvation's BE, but it dosen't look like it is in the poll.
