I got to see this concert one night by accident and I must say this the BEST sounding Metallica concert I've ever heard. James vocals were at it's best and they were all in sinc throughout the entire show. Also the venue was spectacular down in southern France, the fans were one the liveliest as well.

All the PJ bootlegs are great but I went with my top 20 on wax. Once the Moline vault is on my turntable it will certainly make the list (top 5). It will be the only live album on vinyl in which I was in the audience. I know a lot of people were critical of that vault choice... but I love it. Can’t wait.
I don’t have any of the honourable mentions on wax (yet).
These come to mind off the top of my head. Obviously leaving out many PJ due to the amount of live releases they’ve put out.

Speaking of live concerts and bands. I just happened to come across U2 live performance of BAD at Live Aid. What an amazing performance of the 🎵 song, to me its legendary. So was Queen's performance as well.

I love that song. There whole Live Aid performance was epic. I just saw Bono for his book tour and he made fun of his amazing mullet he had at Live Aid.
Tough to categorize "live albums" because there are bands like Pearl Jam and Wilco that release a ton of shows officially; others have released shows for free as MP3s but they weren't official albums for sale on CD; and now there are official pro-shot live performances archived on youtube. Excluding many from those categories, and adding to albums listed above, here's a few more:
Richard Thompson - Small Town Romance
Grateful Dead - Without a Net
The Who - Young Vic 1971 (Who's Next re-release bonus disc)
The Kinks - To The Bone
Nirvana - MTV Unplugged
Soul Asylum - Welcome to the Minority live disc
Soul Asylum - Live at Palais Royale - This sit-down-but-not-totally acoustic gig was never released commercially but the full show is up on youtube. I enjoy it a little more than their MTV Unplugged show.

Good evidence that this doesn't need a vinyl reissue.

Love the Foos Skin And Bones DVD too.
