If you want audience noise check out a few of the King Crimson Collectors Club live albums- the Central Park recording has too much.
My favourite is on an obscure Duster Bennett album of outtakes, demos and live recordings (Jumpin' At Shadows) where there is great rapport /joshing with the audience at the start of the blues instrumental Fresh Country Jam. BTW the ex-Krimson rhythm section of Wallace and Burrell can be heard on several tracks of this album.
And the Jefferson Airplane tune Turn Out The Lights (ex. Bless His Pointed Little Head) is a spontaneous improv inspired by audience participation.
And the Whipping Floss incident in Helsinki (by FZ)?

I like it when audience noises are not completely shut out. I think Genesis - Three Sides Live is a bad example in that respect. The band is live, but the audience - noises are mixed out for the biggest part.
Split Enz - The living Enz (not prog, but very good) has lots of audience noises on the album. The audience is being asked on the album to make some noises too. I like it when live albums aren't sterilized, as on Three Sides Live.

Actually on WBMF, its a guy screaming at Keith saying "You're crazy man, crazy"... and unfortunately now someone tends to do it at every concert Keith plays.. You can hear it on some of the live shows from the 90s....

I think enough time has gone by that I can now confess that that was me, I yelled that out. I'm sorry, I got a little carried away with Keith's antics, what with the knives, and the twirling of the organ, and the jumping on the back of the piano, and all, I don't, I mean, how does he do it?! He's such a wild man! The running and the jumping and his hair flying, and I just get so excited!!! I want to do that too!
