[kj] It's a Boxing Day miracle!

[sade1]

Santa say it ain't so!
 
Can someone please clarify whether the following are live or memorex-assisted:
 - Live After Death (Iron Maiden)
 - Exit Stage Left (Rush)
 - Live at the Budokan (Cheap Trick) 
 - Nightlife Tour (Pet Shop Boys) 
 - The Song Remains The Same (Led Zeppelin)
 - Kraftwerk Live Min-Max Tour 2005-ish

Having seeing KFK and PSBs live (twice each) I'm almost sure their live discs are as good as (actually, better!!)  than the studio versions. I hope the other 4 are too? Yes?? Anyone?.. McFly?

I think even the most celebrated live albums out there have overdubbing. It's a bit like believing in Santa Claus. If you want to dispel your inherent cynicism and buy into to the theory that x-band really sounds that dynamic in the live setting, it's there for you to believe. But even if the finished product involves some sneaky "finishing touches" applied in a studio -- does that make the document any less nice to listen to? (i.e. even when you find out Santa doesn't exist, that doesn't mean you stop getting presents).

Will need to have a proper listen with headphones. Can't decide if I think that's right or wrong! Should live albums be genuinely live, or should they sound as good as possible?
