Interesting hearing Martin talking about about live albums as he's generally not a big fan of them. The Robin Trower Live album is in desperate need of a deluxe reissue with some bonus tracks. 🎸

These old acts grew up in the 50’s and they loved that music!

If You Want Blood You Got It has always been one of my favorite Live albums but I agree with Martin about "Rocker", I wish they would have kept Dog Eat Dog instead which they actually cut from the recording. It contains my favorite version of Hell Aint A Bad Place To Be. It just suddenly kicks in and crushes. Bon sounds so good on this album. I also like how you can hear the hum of the equipment and feeback throughout this record. This is another reason why Bad Boy Boogie is one of my favorites off this. Its the song where the band extends their jam a bit while letting Angus do his thing. Its actually somewhat short compared to what they started doing later on. Angus's vibrato and his ability to control his feedback during Boogie is haunting sounding, like he's summoning spirits or something. They were such a force when they were young and hungry and living on the road. Just playing that album back in my head right now and hearing how tight and powerful they sounded is almost giving me goosebumps. I listened to it for the first time in a while just a few months ago and now I feel like blasting it again on my stereo at deafening volume, just to physically feel the music thumping in my chest.

No I'm not! : ) "Walk This Way" is the best song on Toys in the Attic. Maybe even "Dude" on Permanent Vacation. I feel a show coming on!

I never understood why Beyond The Realms of Death wasn't included in the CD release of Judas Priest's Unleashed In The East when it was part of a 3 track single included in the original vinyl release.

Thank you Pete for suggesting South Side Of The Sky as a substitute on Yessongs. That song is my absolute go to song off of Fragile and I don't think that it gets mentioned nearly enough. A solid gold track in my eyes.

If the songs were not played at the shows that were recorded for a live album, there is no point wishing the songs should have been included on the live album. For example, for Tokyo Tapes, if you look at the setlist website, the only songs that were played, but not included on the album, are Kimigayo and Hell-Cat, as encores. Virgin Killer was not played. Same for If You Want Blood from AC/DC, only one or two songs that were played at that concert were not included on the live album (none were the ones Martin wanted). (BTW, I often checked the setlist website for the shows that were recorded for a live album.) For me, a live album should include all the songs that were played on a tour or show and in the order they were played. This would give you the full experience.

That whole side is perfect the way it is. "Broon's Bane", "The Trees", and "Xanadu". However, Pete is right. "Circumstances" would have been a great addition.

Wanted to add that another good topic is "perfect timing" of the release... DAVID BOWIE DAVID LIVE - At The Tower Theater, Philadelphia (1974) RCA Victor Any time i listen to this brilliant and all consuming great double live album, I feel instantly grateful for "when" this album was released. Although I love all Bowie music through the early 80s, if "David Live" (1974) had been "even one year earlier," there would be no Diamond Dogs tracks. And if it had come out in say, 1976, you would not only have less of all those excellent earlier songs, but you'd have David Bowie himself in a slightly different state of mind. I'd also like to menton that this album features Bowie in brilliant, powerful voice and the highly underrated Earl Slick putting out killer solo after solo, magnificent lick after lick of guitar that matches the songs perfectly. Not to mention Mike Garson's decadent piano, which adds such a uniquely brazen touch to the top. It's a wholly magnificent album, and THE one I think of first when it comes to this particular topic... and a helluva lot else too. Bowie also adds in a slightly more fresh approach to most of the songs as well (1984, Rebel Rebel, Sweet Thing, Changes, Suffragette City, Aladdin Sane, Cracked Actor, Rock and Roll With Me, The Width of a Circle, The Jean Genie and the stunning Rock and Roll Suicide (in its "best ever" form)....all of which are performed in a way slightly different from the norm, and pefectly fitting for this immersive and involving concert. One which truly makes you feel like "you're there," in the Tower Theater, July, 1974. ML ⚡

I appreciate the X stuff Martin, someone has to talk punk and alt, can't all be prog and metal.

Horslips closed out the 70's with the single disc, The Belfast Gigs, which was actually culled from three shows so there was plenty of room to make it a double album considering they had 9 VERY different studio albums to draw from.

For Genesis live it should have included "Suppers Ready" on side one.... Side 2 would have "Watcher of The Skies" and "The Knife". It should have been a double album to include more songs. 😢

Great show! Agree Pete about On Stage and BOC.

Skynyrds 'One More From The Road' is nigh on perfect, but it always bugged me that it didn't contain any tracks from Gimme Back My Bullets. Would love to have heard that track on the LP as well as one other, probably Roll Gypsy Roll, as it's one of my favourite deep cuts from this great US band

I pretty much agree 100% with what Pete said about Yessongs. Also with what Martin said about "Priest,,,Live!" Reckless is by FAR the best song on Turbo.

Aerosmith “Live! Bootleg” is one of my favorite live albums of all time but it’s missing my favorite songs from each album it pulls from: • Moving Out (Debut) • Same Old Song and Dance (Get Your Wings) • Adam’s Apple (Toys in the Attic) • Nobody’s Fault (Rocks) • Kings and Queens (Draw the Line)

Maiden Japan was supposed to be a 2-LP live album, but was reduced to a 4- or 5-song EP (depending on the version) after Paul D was fired. The management decided that it would not be good to release a double LP when the singer was no longer in the band and a new album with a new singer was going to be released a few months later. I enjoyed listening to the bootleg version of Maiden Japan (the full show where the songs were recorded). I like your idea for the subject.

Totally agree - Reckless is my absolute favorite on Turbo Lover!

Interesting show! But let me tell you Pete, I wouldn't leave out Carol from Get Yer Ya Ya's Out. I'm not a fan of the old covers either but what the Stones do with that song in that recording with a spectacular Keith Richards is supreme. Nothing flashy just a magnetic groove.

Great episode. As a huge Yes fan, I completely agree with Pete's thoughts that "South Side of the Sky" and "America" should have been on Yessongs. What an album it is. And what an album it could have been!

...oh, I wish I could've been a "guest" for this show...you guys touched on quite a few live albums where I thought the track listing was "wanting," but 3 of them are personal "pet peeves" of mine...please forgive the elongated "rant" below on those 3, but I cannot help myself, due to the "personal nature" of this topic...1) Angel "Live Without A Net"...first off, this album was not, to my knowledge, mentioned once as part of your previous "live album" topics...I was always curious about Pete's opinion on it, and unless I missed it somehow, I never got any sort of input until this episode...when it first came out, I was a huge Angel fan, and was elated at the simple existence of a live Angel album...I have zero problems between the Mickey Jones vs. the Felix Robinson eras of the band, but the song selection on this is what makes this an "average" live album vs. a "great" live album...first of all, by this time, live albums featuring drum, guitar and keyboard solos were waning...get rid of that excessive crap and include more songs, as opposed to elongated versions of songs that would've been just fine @ the original album length...second, omit "filler"..."Over And Over" was never one of their best songs, get rid of it...and I agree with Martin on "Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore," which, on here, sounds awful...and do we really need a cover version of "All The Young Dudes?"...and the "live" version of "20th Century Foxes" could've been put on the b-side of the studio version of this totally worthless song...in their places, "Cast The First Stone," "Mirrors," "The Fortune," "Sunday Morning," and "Chicken Soup" would've made this fantastic....and one other thing...they left out a verse on "Can You Feel It," which is also lacklustre on this album...I mentioned it to Punky and he wasn't even aware it was missing, and they still perform the "verse-less" version to this day...2) Nazareth "'Snaz"...I hated it back then, and I hate it today...first of all, who the hell let the honky-tonk piano player in? I don't need no damn honky tonk piano in "Beggar's Day," for crying out loud. Second, Pete, you are absolutely correct...this album should've been recorded on the "No Mean City" tour...and it's literally impossible to find any live recordings from that tour. I've put together a 16-song selection that would've made a snarling, biting, kicking live album from Nazareth, but from what I've read, they deemed it necessary to "show their versatility" as opposed to being a straight-forward kick-ass live band...to each their own. But "Go Down Fighting," "Revenge Is Sweet," "I Am The Violin," "Silver Dollar Forger," "No Mean City," "Alcatraz"...they had so many damn good songs that would've made this a killer album...I was the "entertainment editior" for my high school newspaper the year this came out...I gave it a shitty review, because it's a shitty album...and, finally 3) Rush "Exit Stage Left"...despite the horrible production, the album is...weird. Initially addressing Pete's addtions to the album, I was in attendance at both the "Permanent Waves" and "Moving Pictures" shows, and although I agree with your inclusions, the band did not play "Circumstances" and "A Farewell To Kings" on those tours...what I submit as an alternative is this...at this time, Rush was "riding a wave"...why not take a dare (not like Rush would 'take a dare' on anything...!) and release a 3-disc live album...that way, the entire concert could be represented...parts of "Cygnus/Hemispheres"..."The Camera Eye"..."Natural Science"..."Vital Signs," which was relegated to the b-side of a single from the "Signals" album...after all, Yes and ELP did it...why not Rush? Particularly at that time of their career...as for your removal of "Beneath, Between And Behind," I'm glad they did it, along with "A Passage To Bangkok." Yes, it would've been cool to hear both of those on "All The World's A Stage," but at least there is a live representation of those songs (although the studio versions of both smoke the live versions...) from that time period. Sorry I was so long-winded, but you "hit a nerve" with me on this topic. :0)

Agree and disagree with Martin, about AC/DC's "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)" 1978, Atlantic CBS, inc. First off, I do agree that it should've been a double album. Could've included several other POWERAGE tracks (also "my" fave studio LP), such as "Up To My Neck In You," "Gone Shootin'," "What's Next to The Moon" "Sin City" and "Down Payment Blues" to choose from (all of which are stellar AC/DC songs) BUT.... this album does work fantastically, just as it is! Martin, look, if you want to say that you don't want to hear "The Jack" or "Bad Boy Boogie," make sure you're talking about the later BJ era, when "The Jack" was performed in a 'much less effective' way. THE JACK here is totally classic, what with Bon's much more visceral, alt. lyrics and....oh, shit...Angus Young's absolutely killer licks! I mean, his soloing on "The Jack" is some of the finest blues work...ever. Not to mention his unbelievable TONE. It does not get better. "Bad Boy Boogie" and "Let There Be Rock" also contain a far more effective, badass, evil-tinged quality that tops the already marvelous studio versions. So, yes to it bring a double album, NO to replacing any of the fantastic tracks already present. *I wouldn't mind this album also containing brilliant eaeloet tracks like "Rock and Roll Singer," "Overdose" and "Can I Sit Next To You Girl" as well. Also, Pete, I totally agree about The Rolling Stones. That album should've included "Gimmie Shelter," "Live With Me," and "Monkey Man"...just to note three from one album. Totally agree with that! But....those two Chuck Berry songs (Carol & Little Queenie) are both brilliant, groovy & involving. Most especially due to the great Mick Taylor, who makes both that much more badass! Marc ⚡

Good Show! I'm going to delve back into some of the latter day ZZ Top albums as I've never given them much love. As for If You Want Blood, I wouldn't take anything away but it should have been a double album.

I think you came across a good topic for another time. Songs that shouldn’t or can’t be performed live.

I appreciate Martin's regard for ZZ Top's post-Recycler releases. On his suggestion I explored those records and I'm so glad I did. There's some great, unexpected stuff on them!

The Rolling Stones' Get Your Ya-Ya's Out left out killer versions of Satisfaction and Under My Thumb. The were included later in the Ya-Ya's box set.

Great video! I agree 1000% with Pete's take on BOC's "On Your Feet" - take out the covers!!!

Mistreated is the best thing on “on stage” however I agree stargazer and light in the black need to be there

Ken Lyons and Larry Junstrom, both bassists for .38 Special have died. Great episode, but I thought for sure one of you were going to mention Y&T's Open Fire. Single live album, strange track listing, not one song from Mean Streak or In Rock We Trust.

Good show guys, some excellent choices and a few I haven't even heard yet, so yay more homework for me, I guess. lol There are a few that came to mind but my live album was a posthumous release. Ozzy Osbourne/Randy Rhoads Tribute, released in 1987. Since it was released 5 years after Randy's death, I never understood why, " Over The Mountain " wasn't the opening song, let alone not on it at all! I could have done without, " Paranoid " or " No Bone Movies ". I also would have put, " Diary of a Madman " on there as well, " Little Dolls " or " S.A.T.O " would have been great too. It was heavily lop sided with the Blizzard songs and only two songs off of DOAMM, " Believer " and " Flying High Again ", which are okay but not as good as the others I mentioned, at least not to me. lol

The only one i can think of is Ozzy Osbourne. Speak of the Devil. I would scrap the whole set list and put in the songs from the Diary of a Madman tour. 🤘🏽

Add "Hell Bent for Leather" to close the original release of "Unleashed in the East"

Just saw Stewart Copeland “Police Deconstructed”. He did a fantastic job of reimagining the mainstay Police songs with an orchestra and female vocalists! He is still one of the fastest and yet precise drummers I have ever seen! And being here in Northern Indianapolis, was that Nick D’Virgilio filling in on drums when Copeland was conducting!? With Nick living about 90 minutes north of Indy it could be. But Copeland didn’t introduce anyone. ☹️

Beck and Hammer had very little material between them and Beck didn't come on stage until well after Hammer and band had gotten pretty deep into their set. Those bootlegs are from a different band perhaps

We did lose Larry Junstrom from 38 Special in 2019. He was their bass player from 1977 - 2014. I had picked Molly Hatchet before you ended with them! Yes take off 'Freebird' & 'Satisfied Man'. My choice would be 'Sweet Dixie' & 'Good Rockin'.

Another great show,agree 100% about if you want blood

Jefferson Airplane's archival Sweeping Up the Spotlight is missing Somebody to Love. The 2004 reissue of Volunteers has Somebody to Love from that show and it's incredible.

Pete, you're so right about Queen Live At Wembley '86, they left off so many good live songs, the 2 you mentioned as well as Somebody To Love (you only have to see Montreal '81 or Milton Keynes '82 DVD's to see how great it is), Spread Your Wings, Stone Cold Crazy, You're My Best Friend, Don't Stop Me Now, Play The Game,Dragon Attack, etc. That's why Montreal and Milton Keynes will always be superior. Maybe the band were getting tired by 1986 so had to dial back the physicality by doing some low-key acoustic covers.

Very interesting topic. I agree with the Purple Mk III live albums. Space Trucking could be omitted in place of 3 or 4 songs from Burn and Stormbringer. My pick is Blackfoot;s Highway Song Live. Its a great album no doubt but could have been ,more epic had they included at least 2 more tracks from the album they were touring , Marauder and also added the heavier tracks like Street fighter or Warped from Tomcattin.

Martin nicks off my favorite Max Webster song in Here Among the Cats, but redeems himself by adding Toronto Tontos. Thanks for introducing me to them though guys! Need to listen to the live album

Monkey Man and Gimme Shelter...both top 10 Stones song...GS is easily top 5.

You could do the same show with studio albums. Remove filler tracks in favor of outtakes/singles/b-sides, etc. from the same year or so.

Unleashed In The East is about as perfect of a live album for Judas Priest at that time period. What would make it absolutely more killer is if they would've added a few more tracks from Stained Class to the set list. Like maybe Saints In Hell, Savage or even Stained Class. But I don't think I would remove any of it's current songs.

I'll never never ever understand the thinking why they'd leave off Stargazer. Arguably their best (and favorite among most fans) song.

Great shirt Pete! I’m watching on my phone so it’s pretty small & not really clear. But I’d know that logo anywhere. Can’t see below the logo…which concert or album was it from?

I see U2’s Rattle And Hum in the collage. My theory is they didn’t want to include songs that were already covered on Live Under A Blood Red Sky.

Quo Live - Paper Plane Supertramp Paris-,Give A Little Bit If You Want Blood - Fling Thing which was the intro to Rocker at the time. Would include Stargazer but it’s Pete’s pick. Of course it was on Live in Germany.

...I agree about Supertramp...I believe the re-issue has that song. :0)...at least it's on my copy, anyway!

Hendrix in the West without Hey Joe and All Along The Watchtower

Martin and I hate Every Breath with a passion

For me Exit Stage Left needs more audience to feel more live

the production is bass-heavy and "sterile."

I'm surprised the original Live At Leeds album wasn't mentioned. Less covers and more originals would have made the album so much more representative of their live act at the time.

more than likely that the re-issue included the entire show. But I agree.

Skynyrd - 1 More From The Rd: remove T For TX, Crossroads for Simple Man, Gimme Back My Bullets; Tull - Bursting Out: remove Flute improv, Conundrum, Dambusters for Nothing Is Easy, Teacher, Hymn 43; Aerosmith - Bootleg: remove Come Together, Chip Away The Stone, Ain’t Got You for Same Old Song & Dance, Rats In The Cellar, Kings & Queens; Hot Tuna - Double Dose: remove Winin Boy, Bowlegged Woman for Water Song, I See The Light; Stevie Ray Vaughan - Live Alive: remove Mary Had A Little Lamb I’m Leavin You for Lookin Out the Window, Couldn’t Stand The Weather

The reissues have those songs.😀❤️🎼

11:57 I would cut the clunky Bruford drumsolo over Mood for a Day. Add, Starship T.

Four immediately spring* to mind: Exit stage left - Limelight OYFOOYK - Astronomy and Stairway to the Stars On Stage - Stargazer MIJ - Speed King

Bandwagon fans aren't buying live albums anyway... that makes the case for deeper live album cuts even better!

...well...if you believe everything you read, "Tomorrow And Tonight" was a soundcheck recording, implemented with crowd noise over the top...cool, hunh? And, yes, "Take Me" was regarded as being "too heavy" by Casablanca at the time...they also did "Hooligan"...Alive II was even less "live" than "Alive!"...
