It’s taken us a long time to get a live Sly & The Family Stone album because this was first released in 2009.

Pink Floyd Ummagumma 1969
Ummagumma is the first Pink Floyd live album recorded in 1969 with early psychedelic space rock classics.
It was a double LP with one LP live and the other recorded in the studio and featuring compositions by the individual members of the group. Only one song, Grantchester Meadows is really worthwhile.
