MTV unplugged would like to have a talk with you
The Nirvana and Alice in Chains unplugged albums are fantastic.
MTV used to be something other than a laughing stock
The most part I love them because I've never had the money to go.to a proper live show. I love listening to the live recordings because I can get to hear it even if I dont get to be part of it, and honestly most live recordings are pretty good too.
Johnny cash annoys me though coz every recording of every song he starts at different times and picks a totally different rythm for the lyrics on occasion. Like it's impossible to sing along unless you listen to the same recording.
there's sometimes improvisations done in those live recording, and when I think it adds something to the music or I like how it sounds, I get it.
I have always preferred live recordings over studio ones.
Been that way since about 1977 and continues to this day.
When a band records a live album, it's recorded almost the same way as on the studio. What's being record isn't what your hearing form the venue speakers. I mean, it kinda is but they'll have mics or DI tracks recording and then different ones for the Venue PA. The. Those tracks then go and great mix and masters and sometimes they even go a record more stuff that the live performance didn't capture or didn't sound good
Cheap Trick Live At Budokan has entered the chat
You should listen to bands that reinterpret their songs when they play them live. It's like getting a remix album instead of a live album.
Some bands refrain from using studio tricks to make themselves sound better.
Some bands only release studio recordings that they can reliably duplicate live.
Some bands hang it up when they're no longer able to do justice to their most popular material.
Rush was all of these. The Rolling Stones are none of these.
nirvana's "nevermind" was recorded live.
No it wasn't. They played together in the studio but there's tons of studio tricks in that recording. Vocals overdubbed, punch ins, etc.
Anything Cocorosie live is the best thing I've heard
You'd be surprised how many live albums have studio overdubs or entire tracks replaced in the studios.
I feel like that kinda goes to my point. Live recordings in front of an audience just don't sound as good.
