And I own "All Night Long." Even saw the Red Rocker on that tour.

I saw him on that tour also. Saw him in Macon, Georgia.

Sammy was awesome. And I was very impressed with his guitar playing.

He opened for Boston (I think [confused]).

First "big act" I ever saw. 14 Year's old, Toronto, August 1978 opening for Boston.

My five would be:

Ted Nugent, Double Live Gonzo,

Rush, Exit Stage Left (actually pressed my own copy when I worked at a record plant)

Blue Oyster Cult, Some Enchanted Evening

Led Zeppelin, How the West Was Won

Kiss Alive II

Live at the Royal Albert Hall - Jimi Hendrix Experience

Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out - Rolling Stones

Live Dates Vol 1 - Wishbone Ash

Live - Robin Trower

Just One Night - Eric Clapton

All on vinyl and get played often, it's difficult to pick just 5 but a lot of the albums mentioned in this thread are in my collection too.

There's a lot of great music out there!
