I don't get the "life changing" or "affirming" feelings from live albums that some members seem to experience.
I generally don't like live albums at all.
Most to me are utter rubbish and they just sound too distant, or unbalanced in their levels......I dunno, I'm just not convinced about them.
If I want to actually hear a band live.....I'll go and see them.
I've owned two live albums in my life.
1) A Phish album which was god-awful and the band sounded and acted like a bunch of idiots.
2) Delicate Sound of Thunder by Pink Floyd.....now THAT was not too bad.
