Definitive Double Live Vinyl Albums

Those great double live albums from the 70's and early 80's. Way before streaming and DVD, this was how you experienced your favorite artists live.... and going to the actual concerts, too.

[@saifonlawrence2044]

The Song Remains The Same is the Greatest live album by far.

[@88brad88]

The Kinks-One For The Road. The live version of Lola is what is always played on the radio. Iron Maiden -Live After Death. Had everything a live lp needed he referred to.

[@imtallpaul]

I would add Uriah Heep Live (73) and Around the World with Three Dog Night.

Bob Dylan & The Band - After The Flood Genesis - Seconds Out Thin Lizzy - Live & Dangerous Simon & Garfunkel - Live In Central Park Jethro Tull - Bursting Out Van Morrison - Too Late To Stop Now Bob Dylan - Live At Budokan Elvis - King Of The Ring The Eagles - Hell Freezes Over Eric Clapton - Just One Night The Doors - Absolutely Live Deep Purple - Made In Japan ...et-set-ah-raaah! 😁👍

Siouxsie and the banshees - Nocturne L.P Live at the Royal Albert hall 1983. Wicked. Classic. A must.

Kate Bush live at the Hammer place is excellent

[@Mozart2Muse]

Dylan's (double) Live at Budokan was a favorite live album of mine back in 78-79. There are songs on this live LP that I thought were MUCH better than the studio versions (which happens like almost never with Dylan) such as Just Like A Woman, Simple Twist of Fate, Is Your Love in Vain, and quite a few others. A vibrant and warm sound quality too!

[@EdKazO-Vision]

Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes double LP “Reach up and Touch the Sky” was a popular favorite here in the swamps of Jersey.

Great Bit. Wings Over America was originally a triple live album, still have the original 1976 pressing. The round stains on Aerosmith Live Bootleg were bottles of wine, as well of that awful purple stain on the cover. Cheap Trick at Budokan was originally a japanese import with the obi strip.

Little Feet was such an awesome band. One of the best live bands I've ever seen.

“Encore” by German Synth Kings Tangerine Dream from 1977 is, was, and always will be a live album that provides many analog pleasures. A progenitor of all things Kosmische/Electronica/House/Space/Rave/Prog et al.

Yes, Three Dog Night was a somewhat contrived studio band, but they were HUGE in the early seventies and they had a great two disc live lp, " Around the World with the Three Dog Night". They cover their hits very well and are very soulful on their ballads and they had a great backup band that coud jam on the heavier tunes.

[@MrLuigiFercotti]

That's not really true, they all knew and had worked together prior to forming the band TDN. They were not the Monkees. lol

[@simplechronology2605]

You didn't need to be "super wealthy" to have a VCR in 1981-1982. My family bought a Betamax in 1978 (for $1199, or $5100 in 2022's money). The price came down a lot by 1981, especially after VHS took off. I remember a new VHS recorder costing about $299 ($1200 in 2022) by 1982, and it continued to fall after that. I actually rented Urgh! A Music War when it came out.

[@garypeacock5919]

I bought my first VHS in Scotland in 1981, it was £660 (about $1100) then. I rented Neil young live rust, it was £5 per night, and a £40 to ensure you returned it 😬

It's weird, but there was a time, in my teens, that I thought 'Frampton Comes Alive!' (stupid title!) was just a rumour - a work of fiction. To this day, I don't recall anyone I've ever known hearing it, let alone owning it. I just always recognised the album cover shot (and wondered why it was the only Frampton album that may or may not exist). Everything from Mozart to Miles Davis, pop to metal, folk to reggae, punk to psychedelia, Zydeco to electronica, could be found in record collections I dived into, from aged 12 to 53, but I never saw this album, anywhere. I still haven't heard it, and doubt I ever will.

[@JeffK.]

Do yourself a favor and never look for it, ever. It's chicks' music, like CSNY. An utter insult to the ears.

[@TheRecordSpinner]

Dude, all your picks are essential! We are aligned in terms of our music tastes. For me, KISS Alive will always be the archetypal live album. Despite the studio trickery, it gives you the feeling that you’re there and that’s what I want to get out of it. As much as I love rocking out, it’s awesome to see YesSongs in there. May I recommend the “Progeny” live album Yes put out a few years back. It’s unreleased live stuff from ‘72 but more raw I would say. Really enjoyed this. Cheers!

[@waz3128]

Depeche Mode 101 turned so many people onto the band who weren't Depech Mode fans yet. The songs were a lot more accessible because they sounded brighter and poppier than the unsettling claustrophobic studio recordings. I can't think of another official live album that could be considered gateway album like the aptly titled 101 was.

Funny you followed Queen with Cheap Trick at the Budokan... Cheap Trick had supported Queen in the US during the News of the World Tour in 77. They then followed Queen over to Japan were they already had good press from the Japanese journalists following Queen's every move, and they played to instant packed houses and instant success across in Japan, and Queen's old favourite haunt, The Budokan. Queen had got a huge reception in Japan in 1975, and other western rock bands found Japan an easier market after that, particularly if they had any association with Queen.

(Very) late to the party here but one of the absolute very best is Rory Gallagher - Irish Tour 1974. It was re-released in 2014 as an anniversary edition with extra tracks and stretched to a triple album. Just went to prove that sometimes less is more!

[@jake105]

The VCR was pretty common by 1982. I bought mine around that time. A Behemoth silver RCA top loader around $325.00 at the PX, Fort Ord Ca. (Sony Betamax was like $800.00 back then) I remember renting The Beatles Let it be from the video store back then. On Frampton Comes Alive, that was the album everyone in high school had and it's the first time I heard all those songs. To this day, the studio versions sound weird to me!

Several of these albums were huge in my life as a teenager in the 1970s, but none as impactful as Willie & Family Live. What a friggin' roller coaster ride! Seems like with the success of his Stardust album earlier in '78, Columbia gave him carte-blanc. Willie did a great thing, recording records with old friends who'd helped him during the early days. Opened up a whole new world musically for this rock n' roll kid, for which I'm eternally grateful.

[@RobertFithen]

From what I understand, it was "Red Headed Stranger" in 1975. To the record execs, it didn't sound commercial enough. They thought it sounded like a rough demo and it would fail. The plan was to release it as is and once it flopped, they would be able to say "told you so" and then call the shots for Willie. Of course, the exact opposite happened, it was a huge success and then Willie could do what he wanted without being questioned.

[@uberbabeINC]

“Tokyo Tapes” by The Scorpions, along with “Seconds Out” by Genesis are pivotal in that both bands were in a transitional period. Guitar Gods Uli Jon (Ulrich) Roth, and Steve Hackett represented the 70s guitar/instrumental leanings indicative of Prog/Psych/F.M. Hard Rock. 80s Radio friendly Pop was around the corner, where both bands found world wide successes owing to more accessible music, and shorter bite-size songs.

The Song Remains The Same was one of the reasons why Punk had to come. Aerosmith's Live Bootleg is a forgotten classic. One critic called 4 Way Street the invention of pigrock.

Not to forget the famous Mad Dogs and English Men Tour, Joe Cocker and Leon Russel did.

The problem with Lynyrd Skynyrd "One More From the Road" was that Steve Gaines had only been in the band for about a week. The concert had already been planned and then Steve was asked to join the band. I think it was the fact that the band had to tiptoe around Steve and make some room for him. Plus, the two guitar version of the band of "Allen Collins and Gary Rossington" hadn't been working as well as it had been in the past because Ed King had come into the band and pushed them to the top of the charts. The period after Ed King was a lull and that was why Ronnie penned the song Gimme Back My Bullets, Bullets were hit songs like Sweet Home Alabama that raced up the charts. Street Survivors was released after a second recording of the album. The first version of the album was much different and poorer than the version that was recorded and released later. Ronnie had to fire producer Tom Dowd and they got another producer and went to another studio. Steve Gaines has his moments on the live album but the album was very TAME. It would have been a HOT album if Ed King had still been in the band. I'll take chubby Ed King over tall, thin and lanky and bearded Steve Gaines. Ed fit in better with Skynyrd and made the sound very coarse and gruff. Steve made the band sound more like The Allman Brothers Band.

[@robertstewart239]

Your video sparked a memory. I remember there was a surplus of the Bruce Springsteen album a few weeks after it came out. It went straight to number one and the record company pressed many more in anticipation of further sales. But the album quickly slid down the charts. A record company executive lamented in Time or Newsweek that "everyone who wanted the album went out and bought it in the first week." I've always wondered how they offloaded all those other albums. Did they have a lot of cutouts or were they simply returned to the record company? I recall that the KISS solo albums suffered a similar fate. In 1983, KISS toured the UK to support the Lick it Up album and my local record shop owner was delighted that he was able to finally "get rid of" the solo albums that had languished in his store room for years. I got all of them for 1.99!
