I prefer The Who live at the Isle of Wight to Live at Leeds.
one of my favourite live albums is The Name of This Band is Talking Heads They also did the best ever live video film too (Stop Making Sense)
2 great live albums which I was at the gigs.
Tindersticks live at Bloomsbury Theatre. Had to rush back from Old Trafford for that one, the FA Cup match where we all sang about how much we liked Paul Ince.
Green on Red, live at the Town & Country Club.

I was never as keen on live albums as a kid but probably prefer them to studio release these days.
Strangers In The Night by UFO. Schenkers masterclass in rock guitar. No Sleep 'till Hammersmith by Motorhead. The Best versions of their best songs. Space Ritual by Hawkwind. An event not just a gig. Rock & theatre hand in hand.
One of the great things about the internet is that it's given me access to tons of shows that bands have recorded but never released. Unedited, imperfect and often better than officially released live albums (Alice Cooper, Tom Petty & Aerosmith all come to mind).

I suppose it depends how you assess the term "best". For me it's where the live versions are better than the studio versions and gell together.
On that basis I'm with Aitch in nominating Strangers in the Night by UFO, preferably the original LP version track ordering and mix. The absolute peak is "Lights Out". Still play it almost every day after 37 years!
