Live & Learn (Vixen album)

Live & Learn is the third studio album by the American all-female rock band Vixen, released in 1990. It was their last studio album before their 1997 reunion and subsequent releases. The album was produced by Spencer Proffer, known for his work with Quiet Riot and other hard rock acts.

The album featured a slightly harder-edged sound compared to their previous, more polished pop-metal releases. While it contained some successful singles, including "Streets in Paradise" and "Cryin'," it did not achieve the same level of commercial success as their self-titled debut album. The album's title track, "Live & Learn," reflects a theme of personal growth and resilience.

Live & Learn showcases Vixen's musicianship and songwriting, with contributions from all members of the band. However, the changing musical landscape of the early 1990s, marked by the rise of grunge and alternative rock, contributed to its relatively lower sales figures compared to their earlier work. The album remains a notable entry in Vixen's discography and is considered by some fans to be among their strongest musical efforts.
