Live is a double live album released by Fleetwood Mac in 1980. It was the first live album from the then-current line-up of the band, and the next would be The Dance from 1997. The album was certified gold (500,000 copies sold) by the RIAA in November, 1981.

Disc One:

1. "Monday Morning" (Buckingham) - 3:51
2. "Say You Love Me" (McVie) - 4:18
3. "Dreams" (Nicks) - 4:18
4. "Oh Well" (Green) - 3:23
5. "Over & Over" (McVie) - 5:01
6. "Sara" (Nicks) - 7:23
7. "Not That Funny" (Buckingham) - 9:04
8. "Never Going Back Again" (Buckingham) - 4:13
9. "Landslide" (Nicks) - 4:33

Disc Two:

1. "Fireflies" (Nicks) - 4:37
2. "Over My Head" (McVie) - 3:27
3. "Rhiannon" (Nicks) - 7:43
4. "Don't Let Me Down Again" (Buckingham) - 3:57
5. "One More Night" (McVie) - 3:43
6. "Go Your Own Way" (Buckingham) - 5:44
7. "Don't Stop" (McVie) - 4:05
8. "I'm So Afraid" (Buckingham) - 8:28
9. "The Farmer's Daughter" (Wilson, Love) - 2:25

Of particular note are three new songs - Christine McVie's "One More Night," Stevie Nick's "Fireflies," and a well-harmonized backstage rendition of the Beach Boys' "The Farmer's Daughter." The latter two were released as singles, but only "Fireflies" charted.

Also notable are two Lindsey Buckingham guitar showcases. The first, "I'm So Afraid," was popular as a concert finale during this period. The studio version (from 1975's Fleetwood Mac) pales in comparison to this ferocious, passionate, lengthy take. The second finds Buckingham possessing and transforming former Mac guitarist Peter Green's signature number, "Oh Well" (originally from 1970's Then Play On).
