When punk rock bands put out live albums, it can be a crap shoot. Are they trying to keep a buzz alive? Are they filling out a contract? Do they want to make a best of record but have albums and tracks across several labels some of which are no longer active? On this episode of LTA: The Compilation Edition, Eric talks about two live albums that act as best of records for two of the most enduring of the 80s SoCal punk bands. T.S.O.L. Live in '91 finds a band ... who didn't even use their band name.. reclaiming their music and starting to reclaim their legacy. Social Distortion Live at the Roxy is a victory lap of sorts, as the band celebrates it's rebirth and pays tribute to the trials of the past. Eric also has important news. Tune in.
