Being a teen in the 70s when it was all new, just about every great rock band had a kickass live (or double live) album. UFO - Strangers In The Night was one of the best and still sounds great today!
Rush never sounded better or rocked harder!
In additon to those mentioned above:
Sabbath - Live At Last
BOC - On Your Feet or On Your Knees
Priest - Unleashed In The East
Thin Lizzy - Live & Dangerous
Rainbow - Live On Stage
Pat Travers - Go For What You Know
AC/DC - If You Want Blood
Frank Marino & MR Live
Ted - Double Live Gonzo
Scorps - Tokyo Tapes
Motorhead - No Sleep Til Hammersmith
Yessongs
Foghat Live
Even REO had a solid offering
Didn't discover 'em til I was older but Night Of The Dregs & Mahavishnu - Between Nothingness & Eternity certainly deserve mentions."The mind, once expanded to the dimensions of larger ideas, never returns to its original size."

Marillion - The Thieving Magpie (1988)
Dug this outta the crates the other night. Nice mix of classics from the band' first, second, and fourth studio albums on Disc 1, as well as the entirety of Misplaced Childhood on Disc 2

Yes, this. Of course, the Gee-Dees have scores of live releases, just counting the official ones, but Reckoning is own special flavor of great Dead.
Not sure if anyone mentioned Springsteen yet, but Live '75-'85 is fantastic, not just as you'd expect a best-of-live collection to be, but also for the electric versions of Nebraska tunes.

My favorite Pink Floyd live album isn't by Pink Floyd (the following is a different performance than on the album, Dark Side of the Mule):
"The band is just fantastic and I really think that's cool, By the way, which one's the mule?"

well, guys,
I will give you three that aren't in the thread - the disclaimer is, I don't, well, yeah, I will claim one of 'em for an all-time great...
Harry Chapin. Greatest Stories live
for a very long time, this was one of my favorites -
Harry was unique - had he lived, I wonder how he would have endured. ...
Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. ( London. 1974 ( it has a different name - Live at Hammersmith Odeon ) )
I was actually going to claim 1999's live in NYC. and then there was the Live : 1975-1985 three disc collection.
But it was the Hammersmith show that thrust Springsteen ,,, to the world.
I don't know - was it available on vinyl decades ago ?
it was a gift to me six years ago -
Springsteen , at twenty- four.
thirdly, and I will offer this two ways :
Circle (one), and Circle Two -
If you know it, you know
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
as kids in the 1970s, they recruited historic legends on county music - I will concede these may not be "live" albums, But. ...
Circle Two may be my all-time favorite album : a diverse collection of artists, including some Nashville legends that we just coming to their prominence ( Mark O'Connor, Jerry Douglas ) - again, I concede, it may not meet the Definition of "Live". but it was --
pull up two or three tracks on youtube - it's not for everybody, but I like it...
it is amazing to see the diversity of Music in this thread -
thanks... skiJ
