Live on the Air is a live performance double CD by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi (credited to the Vince Guaraldi Trio), released November 14, 2008 through D & D Records (Guaraldi's label).
Background Live on the Air consists of a live performance recorded on February 6, 1974 (two years to the day before Guaraldi's premature death), at Wally Heider Studios in San Francisco, California. The performance was broadcast live by radio stations KPFA and KPFB. Tracks 1–8 were performed for the original broadcast. The sound engineer then advised Guaraldi and his trio to "play until your heart's content" (Track 9), resulting in three additional songs performed for the studio audience.
Track listing Numerous errors were made with respect to song titles and running times. Proper titles and song lengths appear with incorrectly titled tracks in parentheses.
Notes "Cabaret", "Linus and Lucy" and "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" were previously released on North Beach (2006).
