Have any artists / bands done full album performances?

You see more modern bands doing full albums (Metallica, Slayer, etc) but have any jazz bands / artists done a full LP performance?  Would be neat to see George Benson Quartet with Dr Lonnie Smith and Ronnie Cuber plus a few hired hands knock out the first 2 Columbia LPs.  Or Herbie Hancock doing full album performances of some of his classic Blue Note dates (with many hired hands, obviously).

Dave Brubeck's alma mater, UOP, has for many years hosted an annual music festival bearing his name and for years the DBQ was the central attraction for the festival.  One year, the theme behind the DBQ's appearance at that festival was to be a live performance of the Time Out LP (maybe it was the 50th anniversary of that album).  Ultimately, Dave himself was unable to attend but his son Darius filled in admirably for him and it was a pretty good concert, even if none of the original members of the DBQ who recorded that album made it to that performance.
