    None of these artists are even my favourites, but I just love how they rose to these big occasions:

    Prince's guitar solo at the George Harrison tribute concert.

    Bowie and Annie Lennox at the Freddie tribute concert.

    Beyonce at Obama's inauguration ball.

    Whitney Houston's Star Spangled Banner. A lot of that is the amazing arrangement specifically for the occasion.

    I'm more of a Radiohead and The National kind of person but the above I think could be recognised universally as standout performances.

    James Brown & The Famous Flames
    The legendary TAMI show

    Black and white film but still the greatest of all time.
    Keith Richards later said that the Rolling Stones walking on to the stage afterwards was the biggest mistake of their entire career.

    Maybe not the greatest but blistering intensity. And Stephen Morris's drumming!

    J.S. Bachs 'Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht.' in the Cafe Zimmermann in the year 1735. Amusingly it's about an addiction to coffee. A rarity from J.S. who is not famed for his opera work but just goes to show how he could turn his hand to any genre.

    I guess you had to be there.

    Only seen videos and I know a few people who were at it....Springsteen at Slane in '85 was a brilliant gig.
    Apparently it's his favourite concert too, which is high praise

    I think there is a legitimate case for this being the greatest musical performance of all time.

    if you're irish and have no interest in music possibly, I love luke kelly but pink floyd on a bad day would annihilate him.

    I've only seen the odd video of the above, but I'm told - from people who were there - that it was indeed some recital. Baroque 'n' Roll at its very best, up there with Boyzone's, now legendary, first appearance on The Late Late Show.

    It was at Harrison's posthumous induction to the Rock'n'Roll hall of fame, but it is epic. Starts at about 3:20, I love at the end he just fcuks his guitar into the sky and struts off...

    Apparently, he was pissed off at some article that the rock 'n' roll hall of fame put out on 50 best guitarists, and he wasn't even listed. He showed up, no rehearsal, says "i'll show them", and rips it up. You can see it in the other band members faces as well...

    Rumor has it that Mozart was only a heartbeat away from joining Boyzone. :)

    I wasn’t aware of that one, checked it out a minute ago ... I can only conclude you’re having a laugh, which people will only get if they’ve seen the performance in question. The miming at the piano was bad enough, and that was befor he started “singing”. :eek:

    My ideas of a great performance would be something like this: it’s only going to be up for a couple more days, so I’d jump on that.

    I fear you might be confusing Wolfgang with Dickie Rock's son Richard...

    Portishead in NYC one of my favourites. Something epic about combining a rock band with a full orchestra.

    Just heard that Kraftwerk co-founder Florian Schneider has died. Their breakthrough track Autobahn is an absolute classic, and here's a very good version from last year:

    I was saddened to hear the news of Florian's death. Kraftwerk are one of the most important groups in music history. Your teenage years are always formative, and I can rationalise my decision to make my life in Germany down to three things - an excellent German teacher, a documentary I watched on life in East Berlin during the 70's, and the music of Kraftwerk.

    Trans Europa Express will always be in my Top 5 albums if I'm asked that most banal of questions. The transition between Metal on Metal and Abzug is beautiful.
