Many of those "better live than recorded" groups were old school guys who were top notch musicians who could play the **** out of their catalog live. No auto-tune or recorded backing tracks for these guys... Edited August 21, 2019 by Lurker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 1 hour ago, The Jerk said: Live music never sounds as good as the recorded versions. I'd say the exact opposite: recorded versions never do justice to being at the show. (Then again, I listen to a lot of jam bands, where the live performance matters most.) Yeah, I know the sound quality is best at the sound board, but that doesn't make up for the magic of experiencing the show as it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cream albums were better than the jams recorded (to me....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Skynyrd first reunited after the plane crash Johnny Van Zant (Ronnie's brother and current lead singer) would leave the stage for Free Bird saying nobody could do his brother's song justice. Until the guitar solo, it was just a lone spotlight on the mic stand and the crowd sang. Queen did a tribute concert and intended Love of my Life to just be an instrumental, but the crowd wouldn't have it and sang along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her stuff with Joe Bonamassa is absolutely amazing. Check out I'd rather go Blind, I'll take care of you , and I Love you more that you'll ever know are good places to start. Really the whole live in Amsterdam record is phenomenal. For her solo stuff, sister heroine, i'll leave the light on, ugliest house on the block, and Caught out in the rain are good places to start. I didn't get a chance to see her last year and was bummed about it but I listen to her a lot at work during the day. Give any of the songs I mentioned a try. She has some that I'm not a huge fan of (nutbush city) but pretty much every artist has those. I am convinced. Been listening to Beth, and Beth Hart made me cry. My 1st impression was meh. I was way wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came walking out with the red double-neck Gibson and the place (RPI Fieldhouse in Troy, NY - small venue, less than 10,000) erupted. He went to the mic and said, "I have a feeling you know what I'm about to play." He started playing and motioned to the crowd to sing. It was pretty awesome.

Rocket94 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I remember seeing the Psychedelic Furs at the Canal in North Tonawanda. I was right near the front. Haunting vocals and the band was awesome. One of the best concerts that I have ever seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
