In Concert 1987: Abigail is a live album by Danish heavy metal band King Diamond. It was recorded in 1987, the year the band released their second studio album, Abigail, and it came out in 1991 on Roadrunner Records.
It sits in the middle of the band's early run, after Fatal Portrait (1986) and Abigail (1987), and alongside "Them" (1988), Conspiracy (1989) and The Eye (1990). For anyone who loves the Abigail record, it offers a way to hear that period on stage, in the traditional heavy metal style the band were working in at the time.
