Back in the 1970s, live albums were an affirmation of real greatness, marking the point at which a group of musicians evolved from mere studio creatures into living, breathing legends, preferably over four sides of vinyl wrapped in a fancy gatefold sleeve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Think about it: without <em>Live at Leeds<\/em>, would <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.loudersound.com\/music\/albums\/the-who-albums-ranked\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Who;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Who<\/a>\u2019s reputation as a ferocious, chaotic force of nature be quite so indelible? Would Peter Frampton have ascended to superstardom without the unlikely juggernaut of <em>Frampton Comes Alive!<\/em>? (Answer: No). Would Thin Lizzy even <em>be<\/em> Thin Lizzy without <em>Live and Dangerous? <\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">There are more: The Rolling Stones capturing their ragged majesty on <em>Get Yer Ya-Ya\u2019s Out!<\/em>, Deep Purple at their incendiary peak on <em>Made In Japan<\/em>, The Scorpions pulling the same stunt on <em>Tokyo Tapes<\/em>. Mot\u00f6rhead&#8217;s only UK number one album? The era-defining, ear-defiling <em>No Sleep &#8217;til Hammersmith. <\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Live recordings were albums so important to a band&#8217;s career that they literally demanded an exclamation mark. Don&#8217;t believe us? As well as the Rolling Stones and Peter Frampton, check out <em>Slade Live!, Quo Live!, <\/em>Kiss&#8217;s <em>Alive!, <\/em>the Nuge&#8217;s<em> Double Live Gonzo! <\/em>and the Ramones&#8217; <em>It&#8217;s Alive! <\/em>See?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But which is the best?
