...these are among my favorites.

The Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense. This is so good, I judge all others against it, and most come up short...way short.

Richard Thompson - Live from Austin, TX. This guy may be the best acoustic guitarist in the world, and his work on this DVD is jaw-dropping. '1952 Vincent Black Lightning', which is the a motorcycle, is probably the my favorite solo guitar story songs ever, and his playing is nothing short of amazing. If you like acoustic guitar, you have to see this.

The Band - The Last Waltz. I was a big fan, so if you're not, you may not care for this too much, although it was done documentary style by Martin Scorsese, made more interesting because said director had developed a serious cocaine addition after his New York, New York movie bombed. This movie, filmed at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco, was highly regarded and documented the final concert by The Band, who used to back up Bob Dylan and were referred to as 'the band' by most people before breaking out on their own. There were a ton of monster 'special guests' doing, including Van Morrison (doing Caravan, which was probably my favorite performance in the movie), Neil Young, Neil Diamond, Dr. John, Joni Mitchell, Eric Clapton, and finally, Bob Dylan.
