Essentially a live best-of with one glaring omission, Live was issued in America nearly a year after it reached the Top Ten in England. A well-recorded showcase of the early group's concert sound, much of what is here actually works better than the studio versions of the same songs — "The Musical Box," "The Knife," "Return of the Giant Hogweed," and "Watcher of the Skies" are heard in livelier, tighter versions than their excellent originals. The only drawback is that in preparing to CD, nobody thought to try and retrieve the performance of "Supper's Ready" from the same set of tapes that yielded the original LP — it would've been a nice CD bonus. The Definitive Remastered Edition is not only superior to earlier versions of this disc, but is easier to find as well. — Bruce Eder
