Live Albums Featuring All New Or Otherwise Unrecorded Material

There aren't many, I don't think...the only two that come immediately to mind are Neil Young's Rust Never Sleeps and the Cramps' Smell of Female. Any others?

I mean I've got a Bardo Pond album that's live improvisation?

Neil Young - Time Fades Away

MC 5- Kick Out the Jams

Loads of Zappa albums.

Every free improvisation album ever recorded live in front of an audience.

Band of Gypsies - s/t

King Crimson – Thrakattack
King Crimson – ProjeKcts I-IV

running on empty - jaxon browne

x-post: Jackson Browne - Running on Empty is probably the most famous one. (Or does this get disqualified on a technicality? It's all live, but not all of the songs were recorded in front of an audience.)

John Cale - Sabotage
Tom Waits - Nighthawks at the Diner
Joe Jackson - Big World

R.E.M. - A bunch of New Adventures in Hi-Fi
Stew (of "Passing Strange" and The Negro Problem) - The Naked Dutch Painter is largely live

A bunch of individual Neil songs are live tracks on otherwise studio albums:
The Needle and the Damage Done
Rockin' in the Free World
Come On Baby Let's Go Downtown
Sugar Mountain
Baby What You Want Me to Do
...probably more

probably never see one of these again, given that any live set becomes available online an hour or so after it's taken place

Allan Sherman's three #1 albums from 1962-63 (My Song The Folk Singer, My Son the Celebrity, My Son The Nut) mostly sound like they're recorded in front of live audiences, unless those are just laugh tracks.

Get the idea this wasn't uncommon in the early '60s -- Kingston Trio From The Hungry I (their second album, live in San Francisco) would be another one. Limeliters' debut album was Tonight: In Person, on stage in Hollywood; Tom Lehrer's second one (1966, a few years later) was An Evening Wasted With Tom Lehrer, live in Cambridge, Mass.

So, maybe more common as a pre-rock thing, or a comedy song thing?

(And I meant My Son The Folk Singer, obviously.)

Underworld - Live in Tokyo
Underworld - Live Here Now series. Most shows feature unreleased music.

sun electric - 30.7.94 live

Might be more interesting to differentiate between albums like Nighthawks at the Diner, which was live-in-studio with a hand-picked audience (a la Beach Boys Party), Running on Empty and New Adventures (live on stage with no audience) and albums like Grateful Dead Europe '72 (close to half the songs had never been recorded by the band), and albums that truly fit this criteria like Rust Never Sleeps.

and some of Rust wasn't live either. just a few songs though.

what about todd rundgren - 2nd wind? recorded live in the studio with pre-selected audience.

i remember Vanilla Ice's Extremely Live had like four new songs on it.

eh i guess nobody would really consider 2nd wind a "live" album.

Joe Jackson - Big World

tg - mission of dead souls

Joe Jackson - Big World

man that was a solid record, hampered by Jackson's need to pontificate - but that band was extremely good

Then there's the Soft Boys Can of Bees, which halfway fits this criteria I guess.

can of bees isn't a live record -- do you mean two halves for the price of one?

There's a live side and a studio side.
I could be mistaken. Wouldn't be the first time.

yknow like ZZ Top Fandango. There's that part where Robyn introduces the band.

Jane's Addiction's first album was live...so, there's that.

saccharine trust - worldbroken

The new Richard Thompson is all new stuff recorded in front of an audience.

Lauryn Hill Unplugged

The last 3 songs on Purple Rain.

I misread the thread so I retract my Underworld submission. Only a handful of tracks on each disc were unreleased.
