Music
fans generally agree that the experience of seeing musicians perform
live can be the greatest experience music can offer. The way the
members of an orchestra or a band can play off each other and feed
off an audience's enthusiasm often results in an experience one can
remember for life.
The
problem is that all too often that energy doesn't get translated as a
recording....the moment has been and gone, and we're left with an
album that doesn't bring out the experience for those at the show
(and often includes the cheating that often goes on with post
production).
Welcome
to episode 133 of Love That Album podcast.
(Maybe)
I'm amazed that I've never done a show devoted to favourite live
records....the ones that DO give some idea of what it was like to be
there on the night. I put out the call to the other podcasters in the
Pantheon Network and asked if anyone wanted to talk to me about their
favourite live albums. As it turns out, I had to push back to a
couple of shows to another date....such was the great response that I
received.
Tune
in and find out what the following people had to say about a
favourite nominated live record:
Peter Ferioli (conspirator behind Pantheon and future host of a show I'll let him reveal)
Ty Lisson (host of The Band: A History)
Joe Wroblewski and Ryan Dixon (hosts of Highway Hi Fi)

Christian
Swain (host of Rock and Roll Archaeology and Deeper Digs In Rock)
Markus
Goldman (co-host of The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll)
Brad
Page (host of I'm In Love With That Song)
I
spoke with the hosts individually about their picks and was able to
get to the crux of what they appreciated in a live album and their
picks in particular.
My
huge thanks and gratitude to these wonderful people for their time
and discussion.

If
you’d consider writing an iTunes review we’d be immensely
grateful. However, it’d be even better if you told a friend about
the podcast and Pantheon – at a (socially distanced) barbecue, over
coffee (on Skype), on social media….whatever way you choose,
consider me grateful.
