There's a subject all to itself.  Who is even better live, and who is worse?

Uneven as hell: The old Beach Boys.  So much dysfunction and angst over Brian Wilson's health. Great then awful.

Incredible: Harry Belafonte.  No interest in his music but a girlfriend's family insisted on showing me everything worth seeing in LA so we went to the Greek Theater to hear him.  What a compelling and souful man.

Not worth it at all: Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians.  No presence.

Unbelievable: The old Ikettes.  The best part of an Ike and Tina Turner show. 

Maybe this one goes somewhere, too.

I liked the Ramones and George Thorogood live, better than their recorded music.
