Some more edgy jazz tends to work for me live better than at home, although I've had occasions where I picked up disks at a show that I thought I might not enjoy at home and found myself pleasantly surprised. I rarely feel any incentive to hear non-improvised music live. For recorded music, there is also the related issue of live vs. studio. Like most fans, GD's live material works better for me at home than GD's studio material. I sometimes have a similar reaction to studio jazz disks. Generally I like studio jazz disks better if they sound as if they were recorded live.
