I voted for "Ummagumma". "P-U-L-S-E" was a big disappointment, by the way; I rarely heard a worse live album

*spits sh*tty beer on monitor (thank god for you all and PA's)*
hopefully then you haven't heard the other Floyd offering.. which someone.. inexplicably voted for. It made sense however.. follow up the worst studio album ever made made by a once great group.. with the single worst live album ever made. At least seeing the show you get a contact high.. not that swayed me.. turned down free tickets AND a date with smoking hot blond because I wanted no where near that sh*t show after I left my copy of AMLoR in the middle of I-95 hahah

Floyd circa Ummagumma was really innovative - pushing the boundaries of music and almost avant-garde. One of the few live albums that really significantly improved on the original studio recordings. Really had a huge influence on me. The post-Waters Floyd live albums almost seem like a different band, so slick and just like the studio albums, almost the opposite approach.
I think ELP generally did better on their studio albums than live, though I really like the live version of 'Take a Pebble' from Welcome Back, and the innovative live re-working of Pictures at an Exhibition. But I have to admit in this case liking even more the classical live recordings of Ravel's orchestration of Mussorsky's piece.
