DEV-O LIVE is a live EP (and later live album) by the New Wave band Devo. It was recorded during the Freedom of Choice tour of 1980, at the The Fox Warfield Theatre. Initially only six songs from the show were released on an EP in 1981, intended for airplay use (largely for the King Biscuit Flower Hour). It featured the otherwise-unreleased "Freedom of Choice Theme Song" and a reworked version of "Be Stiff".

  • DEV-O LIVE is a live EP (and later live album) by the New Wave band Devo. It was recorded during the Freedom of Choice tour of 1980, at the The Fox Warfield Theatre. Initially only six songs from the show were released on an EP in 1981, intended for airplay use (largely for the King Biscuit Flower Hour). It featured the otherwise-unreleased "Freedom of Choice Theme Song" and a reworked version of "Be Stiff". Devo were given consistent radio support by Sydney-based noncommercial rock station 2JJ, one of the first rock stations outside America to play their recordings. This paid off, as in August 1981, they found commercial success in Australia when the EP spent 3 weeks at the top of the Australian charts. Later in the year, they came out to Australia and appeared on TV show Countdown In 1999, Rhino Handmade re-released DEV-O LIVE on a full album including the entire Warfield show (with the exception of "Pink Pussycat", which was lost, but appears on bootleg recordings of the show). The Rhino edition was released in a plastic sleeve with a cover insert. It has subsequently also become available on the iTunes Store and Amazon. com, and in the Japanese box set This is the Devo Box.
  • DEV-O LIVE es un EP en vivo (y posteriormente álbum en vivo) de la banda New Wave estadounidense Devo. Fue grabado durante el tour Freedom of Choice de 1980, en el The Fox Warfield Theatre. Inicialmente fueron lanzadas sólo 6 canciones en el EP en 1981. Devo recibió constante apoyo de la radio de rock no comercial con sede en Sydney, 2JJ, una de las primeras radioemisoras fuera de Norteamérica en emitir sus canciones. En agosto de 1981 se convirtieron en un suceso comercial en Australia cuando el EP de DEV-O LIVE estuvo 3 semanas en la cima de las listas australianas. Luego, llegaron a Australia y aparecieron en el programa de televisión "Countdown". En 2005, Rhino Handmade relanzó DEV-O LIVE en un álbum completo incluyendo el show completo en Warfield (con la excepción de "Pink Pussycat", el cual se perdió, pero que aparece en los bootlegs del show). Fue recientemente agregado a la tienda de música de iTunes, a pesar de que está incorrectamente descrito como el soundtrack del DVD de un show en 1996 (y lanzado en 2005).
