Personally I'd add Live Seeds, I'm sure there are a few others

now playing:  Sinatra at the Sands

Reality is for whatever reason not a lot of famous live recordings in DC.

I think for a long time even playing DC was anathema.

Sinatra at the Sands to me is kind of unlistenable because of the horribly dated patter and shtick between songs. It’s icky and goes on way too long!  But people back then loved it. Sinatra concerts were a show.

I will take 1962 Paris any day. Or 57 Seattle.
