Live (The Sensational Alex Harvey Band album)

Live was the first live record (fifth album overall) by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, and was originally put out in 1975. The album was released separately on CD, but it can be hard to find. However, the LP is widely available on a 2 in 1 CD. The other album being The Penthouse Tapes. This release also features a cover version of the Tom Jones song "Delilah". Donald A. Guarisco of AllMusic writes "Live is a double-triumph for the Sensational Alex Harvey Band because it functions both as a strong live souvenir for the group's fans and also as a solid introduction to the group's highlights for the novice".[1]
