LV is the first live album by American hard rock band Chickenfoot. It was originally released as a bonus to a packaging of the first two Chickenfoot studio albums, and was eventually released on its own. The first "side" includes tracks from the 2012 "Different Devil" tour. "Side B" includes tracks from the band's first tour that were also included in the DVD release, "Get Your Buzz On".
It was included, with the band's two previous albums, in the box set, I + III + LV. Metal Hammer noted in its review of the box set that LV "really showcases why the band have established a reputation for being much more than just a vanity supergroup."[1]
"LV" is a shorthand play on the word "live", but also plays into the album naming scheme adopted by Chickenfoot, using out-of-sequence roman numerals. LV happens to represent "55" as a Roman numeral, playing off of lead singer Hagar's biggest solo hit.
