Swallow This Live is the first live album by American glam metal band Poison. It was released in 1991 by Capitol Records. Swallow This Live peaked at No. 51 on the Billboard 200,[1] No. 42 on the Cash Box albums chart,[2] and was certified Gold in 2001 by the RIAA.[3]
Production and marketing
The album features 16 live tracks from Poison's first three studio albums: Look What the Cat Dragged In, Open Up and Say... Ahh!, and Flesh & Blood. These live tracks were recorded in Miami, Orlando, and Tampa in Florida, as well as the Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre in California during Poison’s Flesh & Blood world tour. The album also contains four new studio tracks, which were the last recorded before guitarist C.C. DeVille departed from Poison later in 1991. One of these, "So Tell Me Why", was released as a single and reached number 25 in the United Kingdom in November 1991.[4]
The album was initially released in a two-disc set and an abridged single-disc edition. In 2004, it was remastered in a single-disc release, omitting the studio tracks and adding three tracks from the two-disc version, as well as moving "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" to the end of the track listing.[5]
The 2004 remastered single-disc version album was bundled with The Best of Poison: 20 Years of Rock in the 2010 box set Nothin' But a Good Time: The Poison Collection.[6][7]
