Live Classic Rock Albums From The 1970s
To help you to find albums that you like, I have organised this website around genres of music with the general guideline that albums should only belong to one or two genres.
My classic rock section consists of albums that are generally successful and don’t belong in one of the more specialised categories. Often groups will start in one category and as they become more successful, they broaden out their sound and become classic rock.

Supertramp Live Tracks With Breakfast In America Deluxe 1979
The Deluxe Edition of Breakfast In America by Supertramp has a second CD of live tracks from 1979.

These six tracks are included on the CD/DVD combination Live In Paris ’79 but for those of us who have bought Paris, it is a great chance to get the missing songs.
