get the movie of the wall. its actually really good, the special features are immense, has a documentary on when roger spat on a fan at an animals tour gig, he says that act of atrocity pushed him into feeling alienated from the crowd, as if a wall was separating, thus sparking his idea. tonnes more features, tis immense

Depends who you're into...

Personally, I'd recommend DT's live at Budokan DVD, it's simply amazing

Pretty good list Duke, specially for In the Flesh Live, a damn good DVD.

but :

9. Phil Collins - Finally...The First Farewell Tour

Is in no way progressive rock related, at least The Way We Walk seems to have a couple of progressive tracks.

 

My list, not necessarily the best in the world, but 10 DVD’s to start a good collection:

 

  1. Roger Waters- In the Flesh Live: Amazing, I'm not a Waters fan but this excellent DVD, closer to Pink Floyd than Gilmour's solo album or evensome Floyd albums.
  2. PFM - Live in Japan 2002: Why in hell the Japanese are so lucky to see such excellent concerts? Amazing, sound even better than their legendary tour to USA almost 30 years ago.
  3. Focus- Masters from the Vaults: Jan Akkerman and This Van Leer together playing Hamburger Concert? What else can you ask for?
  4. Kansas - Device Voice Drums: Great DVD, they sound excellent despite the troubles Walsh had with his through in those days.
  5. ELP - Live at Royal Albert Hall: Excellent chance to see an ELP concert without disturbing animations as in Pictures.
  6. Peter Gabriel - Secret World Tour: Much better than Growing Up, you can see Manu Katche, Tony Levin and Paula Cole instead of Peter's daughter, who is not bad but not in the level of Paula.
  7. Yes - Yes Live 1975 At QPR: Relayer tour with Patrick Moraz (Plays a killer solo), good historical document, the sound and image is pretty decent, starts with day light and ends in the night after almost 3 hours.
  8. Focus - Live in America: Thys is old and fat, the rest of the band are newbies, but sure they can play the old classics, sound and image are excellent.
  9. Iron Maiden - Live After Death: Not progressive, but they were really close, listen Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner and tell me if it's not a progressive rock track.
  10. Pink Floyd - Pulse: All the classic tracks and it's Pink Floyd for God's sake.

Yes Symphonic and Opeth - Lamentations are really excellent DVDs

Is Jethro Tull Living the Past or Slipstream any good?

If you mean "Living With The Past", it's good,but it could have been excellent if it hadn't been for the annoying changes of venues all the time,it shifts constantly between various gigs during every song. And there are also interview bits that sometimes turn up in very innapropriate places,the bass solo on "Bourre" is interrupted by an interview bit for instance and something which is really unforgivable,at the beginning of "Aqualung",just as Martin Barre is cranking out the familiar riff,suddenly there's an interview part,then back to the song! It's criminal! What were they thinking?

I agree Pixel, it should have been a pure concert DVD.

Or at least with the interview parts separate from the concert.
