Modern Lovers 'Live' cover art

Recorded in London right as the band gained a UK cult following, this live set captures Richman's transition away from proto-punk intensity toward a more innocent and acoustic-leaning pop sound. The set is legendary for its playful stage banter and optimistic, child-like charm, cementing Richman's status as a foundational figure in the development of indie-pop and anti-folk.
