98.12.28 男達の別れ (98.12.28 Otokotachi no Wakare)
https://rateyourmusic.com/release/al...chi-no-wakare/
^ My favorite album of all time and it's live! Been my favorite for a long time now, assuming it's been over a year since the last thread of this kind.
There's also the post-mortem
LONG SEASON '96~7 96.12.26 AKASAKA BLITZ by
Fishmans that is quite nice.
Phil Elverum has a lot of great live stuff, good interaction with audience and just the overall feeling Phil's music gives off translates particularly well into the live setting. I went through every single available bootleg and recording from his live performances a couple years ago and they were all really well worth the listen for me. He has released live albums under both
The Microphones and
Mount Eerie monikers, but I don't enjoy them as much as the fan-released ones. However, he has released one live album under
Mount Eerie called "
Live in Copenhagen" that is particularly great and one of my favorites. It's garnered quite the rating, so I assume that's a common opinion:

Another big live album for me is
Les Rallizes dénudés -
'77 Live
https://rateyourmusic.com/release/al...des/77-live-1/
Not my favorite performance from that name but a big must listen one. Absolutely essential. Most of their stuff is live, if not all of it? Just listen to their entire discography. There seems to be a lot of japanese centered psych/noise rock with that same aesthetic and I love it.
Next up is another one of my favorite albums of all time, that also happens to be live:

I believe it's the 22 minute track that's my favorite on that, really the whole album is beautiful. Very nice listen. The sparse complementary field recordings really add to the relaxation of the experience. It sucks me into another world. I fell asleep to it once and my dreams were just as peaceful and comfort-inducing as the music. Just lovely.
I'll include some more without words, but they're also great:
