This album is one of my favorites! Incredibly heavy. I've got double copies if you're interested and willing to pay for such a rarity.

Do also check out the more known live album which is almost as good.

There's also a great live album by Aswad. Not a looker but surely a killer

The Live at Turntable Club I've always wanted to hear but never had the luck of finding it. It certainly looks like a great record.

[Version Control]

It's a pretty obvious choice, I guess, but BMW's 'Live At The Lyceum' is essential.

Another one I find goes down well is the Toots & The Maytals live recording at Hammersmith Odeon - the one that hit the streets overnight.

this one is awesome: Peter Tosh Live and Dangerous Boston 1976. it is readily available on CD for a cheap price. just noticed that it isn't on Roots Archives.
