4 more 1970s live music albums recommended by ChatGPT
If You Want Blood You’ve Got It – AC/DC
ChatGPT went on to list this AC/DC album from later in the 1970s as their best live release. It certainly captures the rawness of the band, their energy and enthusiasm and of course features Bon Scott on vocals. That's enough to satisfy many music fans.
The Last Waltz – The Band
Another classic and marking the end of an era. The album also benefits from including many guest stars and some unique combinations. “Caravan” with Van Morrison being a particular favourite of mine.
Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out! – The Rolling Stones
The second live album from the Rolling Stones. It’s another which catches their energy on stage and has them on top form. Several hits, a good atmosphere, and a superb band live, what more do you need?
It’s Alive – Ramones
Talking of raw energy, here’s the Ramones. A superb live band, you really had to see them. Their albums didn’t sell in huge numbers but they were amazing onstage. This is a brilliant take on the band and their pacy sound.
Has AI created a definitive live album list?
The lists above, as chosen by AI present one main question but with many variations. What about…? Insert Queen, Bob Seger, Foghat, Scorpions, Cheap Trick, Thin Lizzy, and many, many more artists with their brilliant live albums. It is no surprise that there are many other contenders for the list. That underlines a flaw for anyone expecting AI to provide a definitive list.
The AI tools use existing knowledge and material online to create their lists. They both use a variety of sources, but essentially scour articles to see what others think and provide their lists based on the opinions of others.
The AI response will likely vary from day to day and certainly will change based on the location of whoever is asking. US, UK, or users elsewhere will get a list more tailored to them, irrespective of their preferred listening. Which all really comes back to the fact that it's fine and healthy to have so many varied lists; it’s all about opinions in the end.
