(For example: the studio version of "Whipping Post" by The Allman Brothers Band is about five minutes long, a pretty standard length for a song from that era. Sometimes the songs sound pretty close to how they are on the record, but with some artists, live versions can take on a completely different feel. Some live albums are recorded at just one concert, while others are recorded at several different concerts (sometimes spliced together to make them seem like they came from the same show).
