I'm sure most of you are aware that this source exists, but for those that don't....have fun browsing this list of free show downloads:

https://archive.org/browse.php?collection=etree&field=creator&solr=1


Two of my favorites that I've downloaded over the years are:

Calexico Live at China Theater on 2003-04-25 - https://archive.org/details/calexico2003-04-25.flac16
Tony Furtado Band Live at Cicero's on 1999-11-06 - https://archive.org/details/tfb1999-11-06.shnf

Some recordings are obviously better than others, some are in WAV or FLAC only or both. There may be even higher resolution downloads on the Archive too, but I'm not sure.
 
There are shows in 24/96 and 24/48 scattered around the LMA, but in many of those cases the input sound quality isn't really hi-res, if you know what I mean.

Yep, understood. The files on LMA are played here with the same focus as Spotify & Pandora..... Mostly just to explore music & knowing the recording quality may be less than ideal.
 
Tony Furtado sounds as it is recorded straight from the live console. The bass guitar sounds very good.
