The Original Bootlegs is a series of six live albums by Tori Amos, recorded during the Original Sinsuality and Summer of Sin tours, both of which were in support of her 2005 album, The Beekeeper. Two-disc sets were released for each complete show, which were released in three waves of two albums each.[2] On December 6, 2005, a cardboard-housed compilation of all six concerts was released, titled The Original Bootlegs.[3] The albums' cover art is minimal, with artwork featuring animal silhouettes, following the theme of The Beekeeper, which places songs into different metaphorical gardens.
Amos later released a similar series of recordings from her subsequent American Doll Posse Tour, titled Legs and Boots.
