Live Sky is a live concert album by American rock band Crack the Sky, released on LP in 1978 (see 1978 in music) by Lifesong Records (catalog #JZ 35620). In 1988, four of these recordings were appended to the CD release of Live on WBAB ("Maybe I Can Fool Everybody (Tonight)", "Lighten Up McGraw", "She's a Dancer", "I Am the Walrus"). In 2006, six of these recordings (remixed and remastered) were included on Alive and Kickin' Ass, a live CD compiled from the same 1978 shows as Live Sky. The version of "She's a Dancer" that appears on Live Sky was edited for length; the complete performance appears on Alive and Kickin' Ass.
