Best New Wave/Punk Live Releases
Posted: Sun Mar 25, 2007 9:49 pmI'd be interested to hear what live albums everyone likes. What albums capture the essence of the artist? It seems to me that there were not a lot of good, quality live material releases.
The Buzzcocks Live At The Roxy, while sometimes lacking in sound quality, was a worthwhile pickup and captured them in their element. Some of the punk compilations (The Decline Of Western Civilization and Rat Music For Rat People come to mind) were worthwhile too.
I have an interesting Depeche Mode release. The A side is "Everything Counts" in 45rpm. The reverse has 4 live tracks at 33rpm (and they are good quality).
What are your faves?
