Oh, studio by far! The audio quality is almost always better, and I'm not particularly interested in listening to a crowd when I'm trying to
listen to a song.

Hallo The,
Which do you like more? Studio or live albums?
I would say, primarily studio albums.
But some bands do have some quite nice live albums with slightly
different versions of a song.
And sometimes singing the song together with the live audience (eg. in
my car *g*) is quite nice :)
Regards,
Anna

There are some live albums that I think sound pretty good. One live
album in particular, "Stop Making Sense" by The Talking Heads was a live album, but for the album release, they somehow eliminated the crowd
noise except mostly for the beginning & ends of the songs. In the
middle of the songs there's no crowd noise.
There's also a concert video release of Stop Making Sense, and they left the crowd noise in there throughout everything. The video release also has the full performance of "Take Me To The River" where David Byrne introduced the band by name (they cut that part out of the album
version).
However, on average, taking the entirety of recorded music, studio > live. Unless you're in the audience, of course...
They don't make enough recordings where a band plays live but without an audience, and in a venue properly mic'd and mixed. There is a series called Live from the Basement on YouTube that has a lot of actually stunning performances (I like the Sonic Youth one in particular) without the crowd noise.

One thing I like in Rush's live recordings is that Rush was known for
their drummer (Neil Peart) doing an elaborate drum solo during the
concert. Sometimes that's cool to listen to, though I think it's more fun to watch that on video, as just listening to drums for about 6 minutes or so can get a little tiresome.. :)

Blind GUardian has some stuff that sounds better on Live than on
Studio, for example, and some fans think Deep Purple sounds better Live too.
I was at a Rush concert with "cheap" stage-side seats. At
first I thought this was going to be bad. But it ended up being
pretty cool to see the performance from the side.. I could see
the full operation of the drummer. And.. I concur, listening
to 6 minutes of drums on a CD could be tiring, but watching
Pearts performance was very interesting. The band acknowledged
the audience at the side seats during the performance and faced
us directly many times.
Yes I like studio albums. That's why I became a studio recording
engineer.

Usually studio, but it depends. There are some live albums where I
like how they played a song better on that album vs. the studio album.
Rush was awesome live.
Motley Crue, pretty damn awful.
You take a course like I did.

Some of the best live shows from bands that come to mind. Ones that I would say are even better live than on the recording.
Metallica,
Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Whitesnake, and I was really impressed with Def Leppard (both years ago and even now). The older tunes are
heavier and better, and Joe can still sing great!

I notice with your messages that is always 3 characters after your name (before the tearline & origin line). They dont seem to show up in
Syncterm, but since I use a UTF-8 term they show as 3 question marks.
Here is a hex dump of the message I'm reply to to show it - 3 x 0xff after your name:

Well now they teach you video production, music production and audio engineering. The course is about 9 months and costs around $10,000.00.
You work in a school and a hands-on real studio environment. It's a very technical program and requires that you have a little background but not
a lot to understand the course better and easier. There are girls/guys
in this field now. 50/50 of both genders. Hope that helped. :-)

Robin McCauley, lead singer of MSG back in the late 80s/early 90s put a
new album out recently, and sounds as heavy and has most of his high
notes. Worth a listen.
