4. Rockpalast - Wishbone Ash
3. Live at Montreux - Rory Gallagher
2. Live at Montreux - Stevie Ray Vaughn
1. The Kids Are Alright - The Who

I don't have five, but Pink Floyd: Live at Pompei is pretty tits.

[Famous Hogbert]

The music for pompei is wonderful, i especially enjoy the version of One of These Days. But jesus christ, the guy who filmed that shit went completely nuts, especially during his "directors cut".

[Rhino......................]

As far as documenting a concert, yeah. But I liked the look of it, and the filming was interesting, if not helpful.

[Famous Hogbert]

It is filmed interestingly, but from a guitar players point of view I like being able to see what theyre doing to create their sounds and such, and what theyre hands are doing.

Stop Making Sense - Talking Heads

YES.

As far as documenting a concert, yeah. But I liked the look of it, and the filming was interesting, if not helpful.

I can not even condone it being "interesting" when there is fucking 10 minute splices of shitty space cgi and, as eamonn pointed out, during amazing guitar solors we focus on Nick Mason.

I still watch the shit out of it, but jesus does it hurt.

There is some pretty neat just band footage and interviews though. I love watching roger waters and gilmour slurp oysters while Nick Mason orders a very specific slice of pie.
