Playin like a coo at the moment, so I think a change of muzak is required to gee me up..
Dead Kennedys (Fresh fruit for rotten vegetables) Foo Fighters (One by one) Muse (Origin of symmetry) The Pistols (Nevermind the ****) The Jam (All mod cons) Future Islands (Singles).
Iron Maiden - "Live after Death" - The World Slavery Tour.
Recorded over 4 nights at the iconic Long Beach Arena and the fourth side from the bands Hammersmith sell out run, this was for many where live albums ended. Still regarded by many sound engineers and producers as the greatest live album ever produced.

Most over-rated is the Ramones "It's Alive". Great band. Dreadful album. "No sleep 'til Hammersmith" (Motorhead) for me. Would have been George Thorogood and the Destroyers' "30th anniversary Tour" but for the poor rendition of "Bad to the Bone"
I was just thinkin about my fav concert and it has to be The Jam @ The Magnum in my home town, ( with the Skids at the Pavillion not far behind ), Bruce Foxton even came into my local for pint, halcyon days indeed, On the flip side the worst ( And most expensive ) has to be Dave Lee Roth, I used to work with 5 other boys and every month we would take turns in pickin a gig to go to ( You had to go, if you didn't you bought everybody else's tickets ) and one of the numpties picked him, I had to leave early and go for drink.

Good call with "No Sleep.......". there Phil. In fact it got me thinking about my favourite ""live rock albums. So heres the top 10
Live After Death - Iron Maiden Live and Dangerous - Thin Lizzy No Sleep Til Hammersmith - Motorhead The Eagle Has Landed - Saxon Exit Stage Left - Rush Tokyo Tapes - Scorpions Lights Out - UFO A Delicate Sound Of Thunder - Pink Floyd Live - Status Quo If You Want Blood - AC/DC
Think that ages me perfectly (notice no alternative metal genres in there although Metallica came close but their live stuff really blows).
