No jazz but only because it would expand the list too much, which is already extensive. Might actually take that on after this is finished. We got some months for this.

how many dave albums are on your list? i would def include luther college.

is 'the last waltz' on here or is that its own thing all together? what about something like radiohead's 'i might be wrong' ep?

The Bo Diddley mention brought me to Warren Zevon's Stand in the Fire, definitely a good one.

Van Morrison-It's Too Late to Stop Now

Dirty Three - Live at Meredith

Damn, yeah, it'll probably be tough to find...legally.

Bob Dylan - Live 1966: The “Royal Albert Hall” Show

Not from Royal Albert Hall, one of the most infamous shows in rock history where Dylan plays the first half of the set solo acoustic and is then joined by The Hawks (The Band) to the consternation of the crowd. In some ways you can’t blame them, as the run from It’s All Over Now Baby Blue, Desolation Row, Just Like a Woman, and Mr. Tambourine Man is fantastic. The electric set though is just as great though, finishing with a vicious Like a Rolling Stone in response to the “Judas” moment - though it appeared to be wiped from the recording on the version I listened to. A crowd that went from respectful to unruly very fast, but the band preservering and rocking out despite it feels almost heroic.

The Essential Performance: Like a Rolling Stone

Next Up: The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Live at Monterey

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Live Alive

A must. One of my favorites from all times.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Live at Monterey

It seems like the narrative from the Monterey Pop Festival is that this was a sort of sea change moment where bands like The Holding Company, The Who, and the Grateful Dead rose up - but none more so than Jimi Hendrix, the “loser” of the coin toss that required his band to play after the Who - the inspiration behind what would become one of those mythical moments in rock history. This set from Hendrix is pure fire. Killing Floor, Like a Rolling Stone, Rock Me Baby, and Purple Haze all were phenomenal moments that would be the highlight of most anyone else’s set. There’s no denying the magic behind the set closing Wild Thing and subsequent lighting of his guitar on fire as he knelt there summoning the flames.

The Essential Performance: Wild Thing

Next Up: Sam Cooke - One Night Stand: Live at the Harlem Square Club 1963

Sam Cooke - One Night Stand: Live at the Harlem Square Club 1963

This is a bit out of place on our timeline, but nevertheless we have just as much energy pouring out of this live album than any other. Cooke’s voice is incredible here, and the energy he projects and comes back on to the stage is palatable throughout. Feel It (Don’t Fight It) has that almost impromptu plea to the audience feel right into a blazing Chain Gang, and we’re off from there. Other than a short balladeering medley, this thing is all constant energy and interplay with the audience with a rousing Having a Party.

The Essential Performance: Twisting the Night Away

Next Up: Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison

Rolling Stones - Get yer ya ya's out
