AC/DC's "Let There Be Rock". A song called "Sin City"
Bon's last recorded concert.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCq5GM9muhA
1979. Imagine being there and seeing that!

Aye, i seen Bon / AC/DC on BBC a few weeks ago. I think it was one of the Old Grey Whistle Test programs. They looked raw and dangerous. He was indeed a legend.

The Beatles at Shea Stadium, New York, 1965.
Only problem is even The Fabs themselves couldn't hear a thing over the screaming fans.

Led Zeppelin at Madison Square Gardens, New York, 1973.
The film, "The Song Remains The Same" is a recording of 3 succesive gigs they did there. Page was on fire!

Sonic Youth with Nirvana as support, Sir Henry's, Cork City, 1991.
Half of Cork went to that gig, so I'm told.
It was a month or so before "Nevermind" was released. Nobody knew at the time what this scruffy band from Seattle would eventually achieve.


That's all I can think of at the moment.

Interesting thread. I hope more people respond.

This would be second from the top of the list for me, beaten only by Queen Live at Wembley 1986. Man I would have loved to see that first hand.

They also played at the Top Hat in Dun Laoghaire. It was magical. You could tell instantly these guys would be beyond huge. Sonic Youth were also outstanding and I think they got a buzz from introducing a band that were in a class above everything around at that time. Bleach was out (I think) but not nearly as well known.

I don't currently own all of them :

Ziggy Startust - Hammersmith Odeon
Led Zeppelin Anthology DVD boxset
Rolling stones - bootleg dvd (can't remember the name of it) mixture of Promos and Live TV
Bowie 1976 Thin White duke rehearsals Vancouver
Sisters of Mercy Wake Live from the Albert hall
Elvis - The way it is
Elvis - comeback concert (young elvis)
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds 'The Road Leads God Knows Where' Live in Amsterdam 1993 / God Is in the House - Live in Paris / The Abattoir Blues Tour
Fields of the Nephilim - Revelations/Forever Remain (one disk live)
Hendrix at Monterey
Stones @ Hyde Park
Stones @ Altamont (GimmeShelter)
The Doors - Live at LA Bowl (don't have but would like to)
Bauhaus - Live

'The Song Remains The Same' That is one strange film. I have it but have'nt watched it in a long time. From what i can remember it is sort of dream sequences mixed with footage of them living in their English mansons and some of the best live sets ever campured on film. They lived fooked up lives back then; sex, drugs, rock&roll, washed down with more drugs. I'll need to dig it out again soon.

I forgot one of my all time favorite concert dvd's;

George Harrison 'Concert for Bangladesh' 1971

Carpenter

If anyone has a iPhone there is an app called Time Machine in the app store and its great for old stuff.
