Live at the Whisky is the 15th album, and second live recording, by American rock band Kansas, released in 1992 (see 1992 in music). A German version of the release contains an alternative bonus track, "Journey From Mariabronn." The album states that it was recorded in "one take," and has been criticized by some because of the harsh vocals of singer Steve Walsh, whose voice was failing at that time as a result of a variety of issues, including fatigue and substance abuse. It was the first official Kansas release (other than compilations) not to reach the album charts, and not coincidentially also the first not released on a major record label.
