I love Rush live covers of Crossroads, Heart Foul Of Soul, and The Seeker, among a others...
Also, I really enjoy listening to DT live covers of Perfect Strangers, The Rover, Achilles Last Stand, The Song Remains The Same, YYZ, and Tears, among a few...

1. Genesis Live for me too. I love the ultraviolet lighting and the curtain and Gabriel standing there... My top favourite!

2. Sting's live album avec les Tortues Bleus : Bring On The Night

3. And yes, La Gazza Ladra by Marillion

Prog
- Genesis Live - that weird story on the back, that worried me when I first bought it.
- Welcome Back My Friends - the triple fold out with the big letters
- Rush - All the world's a stage and Exit stage left
- Yessongs - the ultimate!
Non-prog
- UFO - Strangers in the night
- Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous
- Santana - Lotus - big enough to take up your entire living room floor when folded out

I usually think of a cover as being the whole thing. Oh well, at least I didn't think you meant covers as in "cover versions", like one person did.

Erm for me its Tarkus, Brain salad surgery, 6 wives of Henry VIII, King Arthur, Journey to and return to the centre of the earth, no earthly connection, all of Dream Theater's albums, all of Coheed and Cambria's albums, free: live,Led Zep I II III, the song remains the same, War of the worlds, Master of Puppets, Tubular bells, all of Pink Floyds especially Dark Side of the Moon beacuse its simple and a clasic

I think the cover of Van der Graaf's "Vital" is quite interesting...

It shows a plastic model of the band. It seems to be re-modelled soldier figures (1/32 scale, I guess).

Yessongs is Hors Concours... and was that an ever -expensive artwork to produce.
But live albums should have concert photos IMHO and in that category
Seconds Out wins hands down
