Live & Inspired is the first live album by American rock band Godsmack, released on May 15, 2012 by Universal Republic. The album features live renditions of songs from the band's first five studio albums and includes a bonus disc of four cover songs.

Disc 1 of the album contains 13 tracks recorded during the band's performance at the Detroit Fox Theatre in 2007, with the band's lead singer, Sully Erna, stating that the venue has a "special kind of fan base". Although released two years after their then-latest studio album, The Oracle, the tracks were performed prior to the release of that album, thus none of its tracks show up on the set list.[better source needed]

Disc 2 contains various covers of other rock artists.
