I can't imagine a 'live' performance with an audience that would put up with lip-synching....
I was at a Midnight Special taping of Black Oak Arkansas - no lip synch there, just 4 takes or so of each tune (Race with the Devil, Not Fade Away)

Yeah your right!!


I've recently watched some 'Midnight Special' clips on YouTube of various 70's bands.

There's no doubt that some of them are lip synching.

Truly 100%  live music seems to be a thing of the past.

Thanks Chris. If you think about it, The Moody Blues, Manfred Mann and ELO all did fake lip-sync videos with a mellotron just for show. I'm sure there are a few others.
