Live Yardbirds: Featuring Jimmy Page is a live album released by English blues rock band The Yardbirds in 1971. It features their live performance at the Anderson Theatre in New York City on 30 March 1968. Although live, Epic had overdubbed crowd noises from bullfights onto the original tracks, against the band's wishes.

It quickly went out of print, though it was reissued by Columbia Special Products in 1976 (this quickly went out of print as well). Counterfeit copies in black & white covers do exist, which are sometimes labeled as being promotional copies. Jimmy Page has obtained legal injunctions against companies who have planned to reissue it on compact disc. For this reason, it is the rarest Yardbirds album.

The cover art was designed by James Grashow, the same woodcut artist who created the artwork for Jethro Tull's album Stand Up.

In August 2000 the album was released on CD by Mooreland Street Records, but it quickly sold out.
