I've noticed that whenever I listen to Rush, Kiss, Dio, Motorhead, etcI prefer the live albums (OK, Alive isn't really "live") instead of the studio CDs. In fact, for Rush I really only listen to the live discs. Are there any bands that are like this for you?
Good morning Kitty.

yeah..Dream Theater themselves have said it...they make studio albums so that they can play something live...they enjoy playing live (even though they're not that energetic on stage)...n DT fans prefer their live materials...
actually i prefer to listen to any metal band (thrash, death, prog) live...it has a different feel, aura...
and also ac/dc's pretty entertaining live

Jimi Hendrix I think is the greatest example of this. Chas really made Hendrix pump out short, to the point songs; however, these songs do not show off Hendrix's guitar abilities. His live stuff really allows you to get a feel for his guitar playing, he was made to be a live player. Plus his improvisations (esp at Woodstock) are insane. Hendrix is much more incredible live than on the JHE albums, where he was contained in his songwriting and playing.

Peter Frampton - Frampton Comes Alive is much better to listen to than his studio albums.
Bob Seger - Live Bullet is a strong album and preferable to any of his albums except Stranger in Town.
Earth Wind and Fire - Gratitude is my favorite album by them.
