Rattle and Hum is a pretty pedestrian effort, IMO. It really captured the excessiveness that almost did U2 in (artistically) post-Joshua Tree.
As for the Rolling Stone list -- any list of best live albums that doesn't include Jerry Lee Lewis's Live at the Hamburg Star Club should be ignored. That might be the best ever.
