agree  Michael Korovkin: Could it be also a live anthology? Or does it sound a bit funny, just like "live album"?

  -> Thank you. I would say that "anthology" is less common for use in music, but it also suggests something more comprehensive with regards to an artists work (IMO) and this might not be the case here.
