It’s not quite the same but I like Daft Punk’s Alive 2007 as a mash up of their two albums. Nightwish’s Ghost Love Score and Green Day’s Jesus of Suburbia.

There's an album for Simon and Garfunkel live at Madison square garden. I think I only really love it more than most of their other stuff because it's the album I grew up on and it's got all the classics. Unfortunately I couldn't find it on Spotify, but it's probably out there.

It's not an album necessarily, but there is a Portugal The Man live sort of half documentary half album that's done acoustically. It's awesome, I think it really highlights how eclectic they are as a group.

Similarly, not an album, but there's a few accoustic songs done by Manchester Orchestra in one sitting that's on YouTube and it's just absolutely gorgeous. It's my favorite songs of theirs and it's just beautiful.

They did a benefit concert of some kind in Central Park, and it was all the TV picked up a few years later as my mom held me when I was sick as hell and we stayed up on the couch, in the dark, no picture but the sound on. It was hours, and I hated their music then as it wasn't Tony Basil and had neither Huey nor any News. But It's grown on me since I associate the two. I love the Disturbed cover of TSoS.
