Episode notes

Ah, the fabled live album. It takes guts to do one, and it takes true talent to choose a single gig as opposed to throwing together a compilation of tracks recorded over the course of a tour.

On this episode we put the live album into some distinct categories, and from there each of us talk about some of our favourites. We discuss the history of the live album, what it means, why there are so few and a bunch more stuff.

What’s some of your favourite live albums? We reckon we’ll probably cover more of these in future episodes - there’s a lot of great bands with a lot of great live albums - so hit us with your best suggestions!
