I was just trying to finish off my Great White CD collection when I noticed something fairly obvious..... they had a helluva lot of LIVE discs.

 

So my question is.....

 

What band out there has had the most LIVE releases??

 

If I counted right, Great White has 8 LIVE releases:

 

1. Recovery: Live!

2. Live At The Ritz

3. Live At The Marquee

4. Live In London

5. Live In New York

6. Anaheim Live

7. Stage

8. Thank You... Goodnight

I dunno, with bands these days releasing live gigs for nearly every concert on certain tours like Pearl Jam who must have countles live releases.

Also Kiss had that box didn't they? Which contained a disc from every gig on one leg some tour (Sonic Boom?)...or are we just counting ones generally available.

 

I guess U.F.O have quite a few live ones that have popped out over the years.

 

Live (1972 pre Schenker days!)

Strangers in the Night

Headstone (the live portion was released some years after the compilation as a stand alone live release)

BBC Radio 1 Live in Concert

Lights Out in Tokyo

Live in Texas (also known as Parkers Birthday)

Heavens Gate (Which was a re-release of Misdemeanor Live promo)

On With the Action

In Session and Live in Concert

Werewolves of London

Regenerator

Big Apple Encounters

Live on Earth (3 gigs on 4 CD's...)

Showtime

The Official Bootleg Box set (I ain't got this yet but I think some of the discs above are part of it)

Let it Roll 4 CD box set - (again not got this but I think it includes the Live in Texas disc, and maybe others)

Live Throughout the Years (Box set of some of the discs above Regenerator e.t.c....no new stuff)

Impact Live (another box set of previously released stuff..)

 

Problem is these later boxes I think are almost all repackaged stuff .. especially Live Throughout the Years and Impact Live, Let it Roll I'm not sure about apart from the Texas disc.

 

Either way it's a few live discs!

With the amount of cheap unauthorised releases that are now available, you have to give it to bands like Motorhead etc, as there seems to be a new live album released every couple of weeks.

:lol: True. Motorhead has been signed to seemingly every record label in the universe at one time or another, and usually as soon as they leave one company and sign to another, the "former" label either releases a live disc or a "Best-Of" compilation of their stuff.
