Sorry about the PC thing- I was trying to find out about your favorites- and much of my intense concert going lasted for a period over only about 5 years. I have spoken to people who saw a broader and more impressive number of groups. I like to think that mine was a qualitative experience. In fact Floyds Pulse and Crazy Horses (both earlier 90's) have been the last I have attended.

What is great about this music is how it allows folks like you and I and from different generations to relate on a similar level and topic. Having said this, Jimmy Page's bell bottom pants and his shirts were so outrageously cool that even for their wardrobes it was well worth the money.

I also came to the conclusion that LZ was almost Tolkein-like in creating broad brushed mythologies and epic performances.

All this 70's talk has inspired me to put together a list of my favorite LIVE albums of the decade (in no particular order):

Rock of Ages - The Band
Live Rust - Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Live at Leeds - The Who
Band of Gypsies - Jimi Hendrix
Live at the Fillmore East - The Allman Brothers
Europe '72 - The Grateful Dead
It's Too Late to Stop Now - Van Morrison
The Song Remains the Same - Led Zeppelin
One for the Road - The Kinks
Wings Over America - Paul McCartney (a sentimental favorite ...one of the shows that was recorded was the first concert I ever attended).
