But to be fair, Live at Leeds deserves more than two mentions
No rule says you too can't point to a great performance. One that The Simpsons thought worthy of capturing in popular culture. 👍

The Who, Live at Leeds. You get all the energy they can bring with some banging covers as well as their staples.
On my debut listen of this now.
Moon's arms must have been completely fucked at the end of it. He's going completely nuts.

Under a Blood Red Sky - U2

In my haste I forgot to mention Rammstein live aus Berlin. The Paris show might be better, but I've played the first one almost as much as Maiden.

Keith Jarrett - The Köln Concert

Iron Maiden - Live After Death
This is the answer. The best version of a lot of their best songs played at their peak
-
Whitesnake - Live In The Heart of The City
Queen - Live Killers -
Seconds Out by Genesis.
Songs have a different mood from the studio versions but still sound great. Phil Collins' vocals are teriffic. Their live albums from the early '90's are also pretty damn good.

No mention of Frampton comes Alive yet.
Very aptly named album. He came alive with that record and then died again.
There weren’t many record collections in the seventies without it though.
Not my thing but you’re right. It was THE album for a while.

Alice in chains MTV unplugged.
That's peak grunge

There are very few bigger AIC fans than me … but I can’t upvote this. It’s a nice album, but none of the songs sound better than the originals.
Which surely must be a key concept.

@majorrage for me, knowing the back story, it really sounds like a man who knows he is killing himself but knows he is powerless to stop himself and has given up. Beautiful but terrible.
