OK...here's my argument for the inclusion of Live At The Apollo.

Quite simply put, James Brown is first and foremost a live act (not any more obviously...he's dead) and a studio album, as good as they are would never do the man full justice.
My argument is that a James Brown live album is the correct format in this instance.

Couple it with the fact that it arguably ranks as the best ever live album of all time and who is a souless Croatian with no musical taste whatsoever, to argue otherwise.

Add it to the list, as no serious list containing the words "classic albums" would be complete without 'Live At The Apollo'.
