Live is the second live album by The Northern Pikes released in 2000. The album was released independently.

In 1999, Virgin Records asked the band members for their input on a "greatest hits" package. The band decided to do a short promotional tour following the release of Hits and Assorted Secrets 1984-1993, but found themselves enjoying the more relaxed independence of making their own schedule that they continued touring.

The album Live was recorded on this tour over three nights in April 2000 in North Bay, ON, Wakefield, PQ, and Toronto, ON. It featured the song "Out of Love" which was unreleased at the time but would appear on their next studio album, Truest Inspiration.
