Simple Question: Which album or album period got you initially hooked on this band? music.gif Since this is a fan site I thought it would be interesting to see where or when people found their interest in Live.

My answer for me is simple: Throwing Copper. I saw Live playing Selling the Drama on MTV's broadcast of Woodstock and I've been hooked ever since! I love different things about each of the albums but that's where it started for me.

Listening to Mental Jewelry on a Sony Walkman cassette player in junior high, I was sold from the first drum beats of Pain Lies on The Riverside. Saw my first show soon after and as it is said the rest is history... Now I'm passing on the love of this band to anyone I come in contact with. As a teacher I talk about music all the time with my students and I always mention LIVE as an alternative to the crap that floods the airwaves of payola pop radio. I've had a lot of positive responses after the students hear the boys, so maybe we can tune a new generation into the music we all love.
