Live at Montreux 1991/1992 is a Tori Amos live album and DVD or Blu-ray set, released on September 22, 2008, in the United Kingdom and on September 30, 2008, in the United States, featuring two separate performances at the Montreux Jazz Festival early in her career. The first 10-song set was recorded on July 3, 1991, (opening for the Moody Blues), with the second 9-song set recorded one year later on July 7, 1992. The bulk of the set list for each show was largely taken from Amos' debut solo studio album Little Earthquakes (1992), as well as including some B-sides and cover versions of songs by Led Zeppelin and Nirvana.
Eagle Rock Entertainment, a distributor for many releases of Montreux Jazz Festival performances, released the CD and DVD sets.
Track listing The complete set lists for the 1991 and 1992 performances are available on the DVD, Blu-ray and the two-disc European/Latin American CD. The single-disc North American CD release features all but three songs from both performances (the exceptions being "Silent All These Years", "Crucify" and "Happy Phantom" from the 1992 show). The three omitted tracks were made available as a digital downloads.
