Squeeze my Lemon Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 What do you think was their greatest live show? Knebworth? Earls Court? Madison Square? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc1973 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 there are many legendary shows, some there are live recordings of, some are legendary soley because of accounts of those who were there, or of critics... Bath Festival 1970 (horrible audience recording, but supposed to be one of their best ever shows) Boston Tea Party 1969 (supposedly a four hour show, when they only had about an hour of material, the rest of was covers and jams) Kezar Stadium 1973 Nassau Coliseum 1972 (based on review of Roy Hollingsworth, was another supposed 4 hour show) Some of the early Filmore West shows, like 4/27/69, are pretty awesome. A thorough reading of Luis Rey's book explains many of these shows, as well as others... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3hrsoflunacy Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Some of the shows in Japan and the European '73 tour are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc1973 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Yeah, I personally think Germany in March '73 was their most awesome, instrumentally. Vienna and Offenburg were kick-ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom kid Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Japan, Osaka '71 (I only have Osaka, but the whole tour is supposed to be awesome.) 21-6-77 LA, Listen To This Eddie. Probably the best audience recording made EVER. 21-3-75 Seattle. Probably the best show of the '75 American tour, the recording is quite listenable too. Landover, 30-5-77. It's up there with the best shows of the '77 tour imo, quite a good recording too. Knebworth 4-8-79, a great show. Much better than the show the following week. Montreaux 1970, an excellent show and EXCELLENT audience recording. Vienna '73, this show is awesome. D&C is insane, like every other show on the '73 European tour. The whole Earls Court run is also awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ally Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Best for me was Vancouver 71 Vancouver 70 My buddies who made it down to Seattle for the 72 show said it was the best of the lot These guy's had seen them in 68 and twice in 69 so it must have been one helluva show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Action Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 My personal favorites: Knebworth 8-4-79 LA Forum, 6-23-77 Earls Court shows, particularly 5-24 and 5-25 Kezar 6-2-73(I was there!) Copenhagen 7-24-79 San Diego 3-14-75 That's just right off the top of my head. So many shows, so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock Action Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Knebworth 1979 is my personal favourite! The 11th was a bit weak in spots, but the 4th was flawless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
