Renée Live is Renée Geyer's 10th solo and second live album. Having recently enjoyed her biggest hit, her confidence shows in the extra power her vocals had gained in the ensuing years. This is shown to best effect on her duet with Vanetta Fields on Sam & Dave's 1968 hit "You Don't Know What You Mean To Me". Little River Band's Glenn Shorrock also performs a duet on Dusty Springfield's "Goin' Back" and this was released as a single which became a minor hit. On the album she also pursues the harder rock edge shown on the previous album, without sacrificing her Soul/R & B roots.
