1993 live album by Morrissey

Beethoven Was Deaf is a live album by Morrissey, recorded around the time of the tour for Your Arsenal.

"You`re the One for Me, Fatty," "Certain People I Know," "The National Front Disco," "We`ll Let You Know," "He Knows I`d Love to See Him," "You`re Gonna Need Someone on Your Side" and "Glamorous Glue" which were recorded live at the Astoria in London on 20 December 1992, while "November Spawned a Monster," "Seasick, Yet Still Docked," "The Loop," "Sister I`m a Poet," "Jack the Ripper," "Such a Little Thing Makes Such a Big Difference," "I Know it`s Gonna Happen Someday," "Suedehead" and "We Hate it When Our Friends Become Successful" were recorded live at Paris Zenith on 22 December.[1]

The sleeve notes incorrectly state that all songs are from the Paris concert. On 14 December 2010, it was announced that EMI had deleted this album along with World of Morrissey and Suedehead: The Best of Morrissey from its catalogue. Despite this, it is still available on streaming platforms.

Every song from Your Arsenal was included with the exception of "Tomorrow."
