Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
Reading Rock/Metal bios soured me on live albums. So few of them are 100 percent live.
Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
Same. I'll still listen to all the classic live albums just cause they are part of my youth and they still sound great.Rocker4Real wrote: βThu Apr 18, 2024 7:10 am Reading Rock/Metal bios soured me on live albums. So few of them are 100 percent live.
My favorite "live" album is probably Wednesday 13's Fuck It, We'll Do It Live. Love the rawness of this. Doesn't try to make the 100 or so people that were proobably there sound like 10,000.

I consider myself a Scorpions fan, and I just recently heard Tokyo Tapes for the first time. It's pretty god dammed great.

I dig the Scorps too, but Tokyo Tapes sounds dusty to me compared to World Wide Live.

I suppose Metallica Seattle '89 would be the gold standard.

Since everyone mentions Tribute, I'm gonna throw in Speak of the Devil. The amount of energy on that album is amazing. Seems as if Ozzy snorted a few bags of coke.

Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
These are also great...except for the Holy Diver Live album, he was sick that day I think, it's the weakest of his live albums in my book.RaceFan3 wrote: βThu Apr 18, 2024 4:07 pm Maiden - Live After Death

I also forgot about Halford's Live Insurrection, once again that's Halford in the studio but the final product is kickass and Metal Mike shreds all over it. Priest could have totally called him up instead of using Andy Snip.

Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
Before I scrolled down, I knew Psycho would have me covered on Another Lesson in Violence, so here's another vote.. Sounds absolutely phenomenal, especially for 1995, which is how Andy Sneap got on my radar.Psychobolia.com wrote: βThu Apr 18, 2024 6:32 am My Top 5:

For thrash, the Seattle show from Metallica's Live Shit: Binge and Purge always has to be mentioned.
Also a huge fan of Beast in the East.
I'm not sure if this counts, because even though you'd call it "hair metal" or "glam metal" it's really just good ol' rock and roll, but Britny Fox - Live at Froggy's is SUPER under the radar and very very good.
Dio - Last in Live is also underrated as is the whole Tracy G era of Dio, IMO.

Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
I've never really listened to those TG-Dio albums aside from the live ones, which I do enjoy.
His solos are a bit weird though, not bad, but a bit strange. I remember reading that he left the band because Dio wanted to have Craig Goldy come back as a 2nd guitarist, who would handle ALL of the guitar solos, and TG wasn't having that haha
Re: Good Metal Live Albums???
Yeah, that's true. I was pretty active in the Dio fan club back then and there was always that perception that Tracy's rhythm playing/riffing was killer but his lead playing was whack.Psychobolia.com wrote: βSun Apr 21, 2024 9:47 amI've never really listened to those TG-Dio albums aside from the live ones, which I do enjoy.

I remember when the Goldy news filtered into the group and everyone was all excited and then kind of WTF when Tracy didn't want to do it. Kind of a strange call on his part, IMO., but it's his choice.
It would've been neat to hear, anyway.

YES! A fave. Yngy shouldve kept JLT around longer.
