Live Baby Live is Australian rock band INXS's first live album. It was released on 11 November 1991 and features tracks recorded during their Summer XS Tour in Paris, New York, Chicago, London, Dublin, Glasgow, Rio de Janeiro, Montreal, Spain, Switzerland, Melbourne, Sydney, Philadelphia, and Las Vegas. The album peaked in the top 10 on both Australian and United Kingdom Albums Charts. It has sold over one million copies in the United States, earning a platinum certification by the RIAA. The album provided a single, "Shining Star", which appeared ahead of the album on 2 November. It is the one new song recorded for the album and peaked at No. 27 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the group's ninth Top 40 single. In the US, it peaked at No. 4 on the Modern Rock Tracks and No. 14 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks charts, failing to appear on the Billboard Hot 100. The title's two uses of 'live', indistinguishable by spelling alone, are pronounced differently - according to The Greatest Hits album's accompanying booklet - the first is pronounced to rhyme with 'give', whereas the second is pronounced as in 'five'.
