Nah, well maybe the best live album recorded 50 years ago, but plenty more since then Have been recorded that are better.

Absolutely. Only Blue Oyster Cult and maybe Peter Gabriel have ever come anywhere near it.
I saw the last gig before the Leeds one (in Liverpool) so I've got more than one way of knowing just how f***in' good it was!

Hawkwind Space Ritual 1973 gets my vote.

Im not the greatest fan of the Who but it has to be up there with one of the greatest live albums. There’s not a bad track on that album and if you’ve got it as vinyl you’ll also have all the posters and other stuff that was included. I introduced my teenage son to it this week - he loves it.

Yeh, right ....................
This is an interesting list - some good stuff on here, some frankly cringeworthy, and a few serious omissions, but they have 100% got the number 1 right!

Why would there be a bootleg version of a live LP?

Brilliant and saw them on tour doing this.
Live at Leeds is a part of my childhood but it’s not as good as Space Ritual or:-
Made in Japan - Deep Purple
Stop Making Sense - Talking Heads
At Folsom Prison - Johnny Cash
Megazone
On his last warning
how many points did this album win and how did this album do when it was up against similar competition ?

Best ever for me is The Last Waltz by the Band but the best track on the album is Van Morrison with the Band backing him. Fantastic stuff, they don’t make music like this anymore
