Live at the Hollywood Palladium, December 15, 1988 is a live album by Keith Richards and was released in 1991 in the U.S. and early 1992 in the UK. Recorded during the American tour in support of Talk Is Cheap in late 1988, Richards is supported by a set of musicians and friends dubbed "The X-Pensive Winos".

While Richards' set during the tour was primarily comprised of material from his solo debut album, he did include many of his Rolling Stones vocal highlights into the line-up in order to balance the performance. While Live at the Hollywood Palladium, December 15, 1988 does not include the full concert captured that evening, it does present most of it. Of the non-Talk Is Cheap material contained is "Too Rude", "Time Is on My Side", "Happy" and "Connection".

Live at the Hollywood Palladium, December 15, 1988 was first released in December 1991, as Richards was well into pre-production for his second - and to date, most recent - studio album Main Offender. Although it failed to chart, the album was critically well-received and is a fan favorite for Richards devotees.
