Only punky bands should do live, the rest sound too muddled.

Sometimes, it's the spontantious interaction of the performers and the audience that make music magical. The studio can tempt an artist to become too refined, too perfect, until they've beaten the soul out of the music.
Like your Guernica posts: once you had 50 different cuts of the same thing, it became technically proficient, but lacked the zing of your one-offs.
That's why "Get Back" was the best recording the Beatles did in their last 3 years.
