HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Coldplay is in tune with the recession.

The British rockers will be giving away a live CD "as a recession-busting mark of gratitude to everyone who's supported them," the band announced Friday on their Web site.

The offer is good for every remaining concert date in 2009, outside of their festival appearances.

The live album will also be made available on May 15 as a free download on the band's Web site.

"LeftRightLeftRightLeft" was recorded over the past year in various cities around the world on the "Viva La Vida" tour.
