Live Yardbirds: Featuring Jimmy Page is a live album released by English blues rock band The Yardbirds in 1971 of their live performance at the Anderson Theatre in New York City on March 30, 1968.

It quickly went out of print, though it was reissued once by Columbia Special Products in the late seventies (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.

In August 2000 the album was released on CD by Mooreland Street Records, but it quickly sold out. [1] [2]
