Yep, I suspect Wishbone Ash were actually at their best as a live band, Chillie. Good choice!

I don't know if The Doors
Alive! She Cried passes U Soldier's slightly picky (imo) criteria, but it passes mine: great music that gives you some material/improvs that you won't find on a studio album.

I'd put it in a top ten list of live albums from that era.

I can trust Psy-Fi to be on the same page, with an absolute personal favourite! Anyone who likes
At Fillmore East should check out another stella guitar album:
Fleetwood Mac Live At The Boston Tea Party
Other live rock albums I like:-
Little Feat:
Waiting For Columbus
Roxy Music:
Viva!
801:
801 Live
No-one has yet mentioned a combination that was popular back in the day:a double album with one live disc and one studio disc. Everyone's too scared of U Soldier's purist scorn I suppose
In that category, these were mega-popular milestones, in England at any rate:-
Cream :
Wheels Of Fire
Floyd:
Ummagumma
For southern rock fans:
Allman Bros:
Eat A Peach
Marshall Tucker Band:
Where We All Belong
