7. Pentangle - A Basket of Light
8. Genesis - Second's Out
9. The Grateful Dead - Europe '72
10. Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense


I COULD GO ON to include the Alman Brothers, ELP, and Tull and....

Good choices all and I would probably include most of them in my list too.

However I would also add:

Hawkwind - Space ritual alive
Peter Frampton - Frampton comes alive
Ted nugent - Double live gonzo
