True, but singling this out as the "best ever" is probably not very popular around these parts. Did you listen to the clip? It's amazing how in the middle of the song they just start improvising stuff and bouncing it off each other. Page is quoted as saying that during their peak years they had a kind of ESP on stage where him, Bonzo, and JPJ could just go off on a tangent and be 100% in sync.

The Fat Is Gone is my favourite live album.

Yeah, Danny Brown's newest is probably his best.

I think it's Brotzmann's best album and it's one of my overall favourites. I should have said that it's my favourite for the moment, since it changes periodically.

Metallica: Some Kind of Monster is a Kafkaesque masterpiece of modern times.
From the gruellingly intense nihilistic themes addressed by James Hetfield's vacant stares to the nightmarish ludicrousness of Lars Ulrich's unruly mouth when he says "uhh" and the breathtaking climax of the conflict where Dave Mustaine goes "eaaauurrghhh Metallicaaaaaaa". There isn't a moment where the emotions and the morals of the viewer are assaulted with unrelenting and brutal honesty. I'm overwhelmed. I'm sorry. I can't go on.

"Got Live If You Want It" by the Rolling Stones is better. Just listen to Charlie Watts on this. Dude was an absolute beast of a drummer too. It's a Freak Beat Masterpiece.

Ian Paice on Made in Japan and Don Brewer on Live Album also KILL it.

I'm confused now, are you saying those albums are better than How the West Was Won, or Got Live if You Want It?
