Live by the Sea is a live video recording by the English rock band Oasis, released on DVD and VHS. It features Oasis' gig at the Southend Cliffs Pavilion on 17 April 1995, as well as the videos for "Rock 'n' Roll Star" and "Cigarettes & Alcohol". The title is a pun on a line from the song "(It's Good) To Be Free".

History and release

The seventeen-track recording was filmed on 17 April 1995 and then released onto VHS on 28 August 1995. Following Big Brother Recordings' purchase of the Oasis catalogue, the album was re-released in 2001 on DVD. The front cover displays the familiar Oasis logo with a blue background instead of a black one, the same logo used on the "Live Forever" single.
