Live & Uncensored is a live album by Millie Jackson recorded in concert at The Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles, California. The album shows what her shows were like, from tender romantic ballads to explicit recreations of classical pieces. The dialogue during and between songs were often considered a highlight, with topics ranging from soap operas on television to shady men in her life. While not on stage with her, she singles out The Pointer Sisters in the crowd, casually talking with them as if they were all at a party. "Phuck U Symphony" is one of the best-known tracks on this album, and Jackson continues to include it in her live shows to this day.

The compact disc version features Jackson's 1982 live album, Live And Outrageous (Rated XXX), as a bonus.
