If it counts, then by and far King Crimson's "Great Deceiver" 4CD set.

A review of it was recently posted on AllAboutJazz:
http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=23263
While a four-CD set of material culled from performances of songs from only three studio albums is bound to have some repetition, does anyone really need to hear four versions of “Easy Money”?

The answer is an unequivocal yes. Even twenty-four hours represent a significant difference in how this group approached form-based material. The June 29, 1974 version of “Easy Money” breaks down from its aggressive edge into a softer solo section that, unlike the studio version, never returns to a final verse. Instead, it gradually evolves into a vamp that pairs warm chordal work from Fripp and a mellotron flute solo from Cross. The following night—Crimson’s second-to-last show of its final tour before Fripp would dissolve the band (something nobody was aware of that point)—manages to find its way back to the final verse, but not before some frenzied high-octane soloing from Fripp threatens to completely unhinge the proceedings.
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Oingo BOingo-farewell
I love how Danny ELfman changed his songs around and just plane out game an awsome goodbye to all his bands fans.

Huh? I'm not talking about the band. I'm talking about albums by other artists recorded live.

In lieu of sarcasm tags, RF2020204, look for the names nailz1000, flint the dwarf, or bum (the flaming homo).
