Weekly Site Review: The Live Music Archive
It doesn’t look hip at all. In fact, it looks stuck in the nineties but The Live Music Archive is one of the best places to find live bootlegs. They have almost everything you can think of and it’s all free! The legality could be questioned but when it comes to media legalities this days, what isn’t questioned?
The site is really easy to use! All you have to do is search for whatever artist you want. The results are quick and relevant unlike a lot of other “archive” sites out there. Just today I was able to find some awesome Beirut and Animal Collective bootlegs. You can even find free Creative Commons albums by boss artists like Dan Deacon! It’s a huge resource for the aural senses and I whole-heartedly recommend staying a while here, searching, and listening till your heart is content.
