Live in the 80's is a live album by Australian rock band Skyhooks. It was released by Mushroom Records in 1983 in Australia and was certified gold.[1]
The album cover is a 'live' reenactment of their Living in the 70's album cover.
Background
Skyhooks had announced their split in 1980, following the release of Hot for the Orient. In late 1982, Mushroom Records had released a megamix of their hits, titled "Hooked on Hooks", which peaked at number 21 in Australia. Demand for a comeback tour was gaining and in April 1983, a tour was announced. Their Melbourne shows on 29 and 30 April were recorded and released.[2]
