Top album would you like to see played live?

paddylonglegs

With so many bands touring again and playing their most popular albums (which is great imo), what top 5 albums would you mostly like to see played live?

Lets keep it to albums made in the last 30 years or so (so no sgt. peppers), and artist should be alive!

myself, I can't wait to go down the nostalgia road and see Ocean Colour Scene play Molesley Shoals in December.
Otherwise it would be:

Foals - Antidotes
Hot Chip - Coming on Strong (in a tiny venue)
Radiohead - The Bends
Beck - Midnight Vultures (that would be f**ked up to see live i'm sure)
Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique

So many more I could throw in there - but its a top 5!

I've seen a good few bands doing it. After seeing Waters do both Dark Side... and The Wall, He'd defo be my number one, Seeing him do The Wall again would be amazing!

5. Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, The Innocent and The E Street Shuffle or Darkness On The Edge of Town
4. Yes (With line up that played on the album) - Close To The Edge
3. Van Morrison - Astral Weeks
2. The Who - Quadrophenia (Might get to see this next year )

Excellent choice (it's my favourite Springsteen album), but it wouldn't be the same without Danny and Clarence.

Jimmy Iovine

Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Their best album with almost no poor tunes.

Endtroducing..... - DJ Shadow
Mainly to see just how many decks and samples he'd have to use to do the whole thing live. He might need help with it.

FishScale - Ghostface Killah
A truly great album by one of the best rappers of all-time. 17 tracks and none of them are fillers.

Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty - Big Boi
Such an amazing album. Big Boi brought his A-game and then some when he made this. Would love to hear General Patton and Shutterbug live.

Illmatic - Nas
I can only wish.
