Live on the Double Planet is a live recording by guitarist Michael Hedges released on the Windham Hill label.
Music critic Jason Anderson, writing for Allmusic, wrote of the album "Throughout this wide-ranging effort, Hedges' incredible right hand keeps perfect time in its role as sole accompaniment for the musician's vocal work and simultaneous soloing... Too passionate to simply file under new age, Hedges displays all his originality and fiery musicianship on this first-rate live offering."
All compositions by Michael Hedges except as noted.
"The Funky Avocado" features a brief interpolation of The Rolling Stones' "Miss You". Hedges alludes to this in the introduction of the song, by telling the audience that it will feature a brief "disco" section.
