    The greatest live rock album ever. I agree, I love to crank this album while I am grilling, neighbors just have to live with it. Couldn't find a clip from the alubm but here is "Show Me The Way"

    Little Red Corvette? Come on...I mean Prince is good but there isn't a good solo there. Let's go Crazy is MUCH better.

    You could do an entire thread for Jimi Hendrix on this topic in my opinion. Really sad the he died, he had so much talent ( a left hander playing a right-handed guitar upsidedown !). Here is Voodoo Chile from the Isle of Wright 1970:
