Live & Inspired is the first live album by American rock band Godsmack. Released on May 15, 2012, [4] the album features live renditions of songs from each of the band's first four studio albums [4] and includes a bonus disc of four cover version recordings.

Disc 1 of the album contains 13 tracks recorded during the band's performance at the Detroit Fox Theatre in 2007, with the band's lead singer, Sully Erna, stating that the venue has a "special kind of fan base". [5] Although released two years after their then-latest studio album, The Oracle, the tracks were performed prior to the release of that album, thus none of its tracks show up on the set list. [6]

Disc 2 contains various covers of other rock artists.
