"Hhai." I usually use that to greet people, hoping that they'll ask about it, be interested, and listen to a euphoric 86 minutes and 11 seconds of the wonderful Magma. Curiously, no one has.

I'll toss a vote to Hhai.

Yessongs by far the quintessential prog rock live album

I think we should stop having 70's polls.
It's the same titles over and over again by the same bands over and over and over again.

Not quite old enough though, if I was about 3 years older I probably would have added The Lamb, Topographic Oceans, Passion Play, & Larks Tongues tours to my list

Haven't heard all of these, but I'm throwing in a vote nonetheless.
Hmm...I think I'll give my vote to Vital. The sound's not great, but the energetic performance more than makes up for that, IMO.
Bursting Out follows closely in second place.

USA for me. This live recording of Exiles is my single fave prog track of all time.
For the 2nd part of the question...I attended a show on the tour that the following were recorded:
Playing the Fool - Gentle Giant '76 (GG opened for Yes - Cow Palace in SF) Bursting Out - Jethro Tull '78 (Uriah Heep opened for JT - Oakland Arena) Seconds Out - Genesis '77 (no support act - Winterland Ballroom in SF) Two for the Show - Kansas '78 (The Cars, Thin Lizzy, & Kansas was the headliner - Cow Palace in SF)

Arghh snap! I keep forgetting about that one  I've heard it a couple of times online, and I really need to go get a hard copy of it asap. Some things deserve the full stereo whack. Now I just need to go dig up some gold. Zero dineros at the moment.
Edit:  You've got excellent taste Tim. Damn....First that SBB record and now with ze Germans (Incidentally also two albums I just reviewed)! I love that Agitation Free album. People into the late 60s American westcoast psych should definitely go look for it. I can listen to it for days on end. The word fluid is a monumental understatement, when we're talking about this release. Yummy!

Kraan Live 75 is also missing, a very good album. Also Agitation Free......At the Cliffs of the River Rhine.

SBB Karlstad Live |
Hah, I was going to mention that one. Seems to be somewhat under the radar here. I really hope people will pick it up at some point though. I would've voted for it in a heartbeat, hands down. In the absence of SBB I'm voting for Margarine Fiend's Ricochet. I listened to it here the other night, and it is such a trip! Could've gone for Solar Music Live too.

Yessongs without question, followed by Tangerine Dream's 'Encore.'

Playing the Fool, Live at Carnegie Hall and Seconds out are all amazing, but A Live Record is simply the best live album ever made.
