what is that album(s) that was actually recorded live, but was almost marketed as just "the next album?" to boot, also contains great sound quality and mostly original songs
off the top of my head... Roxy & Elsewhere, in NY, Sheik, & Broadway by Zappa |

first two coming to mind ELP's Pictures at an Exhibition Maneige's Composite. Also Lasting Weep's Spectacle de l'Albatros (though a very posthumous release) Out Of Focus' Live Palermo 72 (only two travks - out of 6 - were from studio albums) ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Interesting picks, and I suppose they fit the bill. Sheik Yerbouti only kind of counts because, like many of his albums from the late 70s-early 80s, many of the basic tracks were recorded live (in this album's case, from the 1978 Hammersmith performance, available in full from the ZFT), but there are a loooooot of overdubs, much more than Roxy. And some of the tracks are just straight-up studio tracks. So I would hesitate to call that a true live album compared to Roxy & Elsewhere and certainly to NY and Broadway. Also, while much of the material on Broadway the Hard Way was not available on record at the time, several of those tracks had been played live before in previous tours. That being said, a decent amount on there was indeed unique to the final '88 touring band.

You raise good points, however, despite the overdubs and some studio tracks (thread said "mostly live") I consider Sheik a live album for its sheer reliance on live recorded basic tracks to carry that live sound throughout the record - something Hendrix would do on say... Electric Ladyland

I almost put Zappa as the poster child for this topic... I mean, apart from the ones I mentioned earlier, there is Bongo Fury (all original), Best Band/Jazz Noise (full of covers & novelty tunes), and Yellow Shark (mostly orchestral live renditions of classics, but has its share of avant-garde craziness). Tinseltown is in the same school as Sheik: live recorded backing tracks being dubbed upon by guitar, vocals, etc

The first-ever non-English rock opera, Croatian "Gubec-beg" (English: "Gubec the Bey") by Ivica Krajač (librettist), Karlo Metikoš (composer), and Miljenko Prohaska (arranger), was inspired by the peasant revolt in Croatia in the 16th century as a true event. All the tracks on the "Gubec-Beg" album (1975) are actually the live recorded segments of the original stage performance featuring 200 musicians in total in Zagreb's Komedija Theatre in spring 1975. This is "Ave Maria," also a live recorded song from the "Gubec-Beg" album, performed by Croatian singer Josipa Lisac, who played the character of mad lady Jana, and here she sings this prayer-like song in Latin. |

The double album "The Köln Concert" features some of the most memorable piano melodies ever brought by Keith Jarrett, derived from improvisational material. Concert promoter Vera Brandes, who organised the event where this famous ECM album was recorded, was only 18 years old at the time. |
