Oh yes, oh yes...

Steve Hackett's recent "Once Above a Time" is a great electric concert of his current material along with a wonderful live version of "Blood on the Rooftops" by that band beginning the letter "G" as is the acoustic "Hungarian Horizons".
More to follow...

band beginning with the letter 'G'...GTR? he teamed with Steve Howe (Yes) and vocalist Max Bacon (brother of Kevin). Singles I remember were 'When the Heart Rules the Mind' and 'The Hunter'.

Sandy Denny's 'Gold Dust' is great imho.
 
Rush ~ All The World's A Stage

Iron Maiden ~ Live After Death

The Grateful Dead ~ One From The Vault

On DVD:

Pink Floyd ~ Live At Pompeii
 
If you are talking about audio recordings, and not just DVDs, then Harry Belafonte at Carnegie Haul is technically superb. Famous for having used a minimum of equipment/mixing between mic and groove-cutting, too. It gives a phenomenally clear sense of a male voice on a stage.

I like a number of the already-mentioned ones, too, especially Pink Floyd's Pulse, which I have on original LaserDisk (rather than DVD), and the Cream/Clapton at the Royal Albert Hall.
