Live: You Get What You Play For is a live album by rock band REO Speedwagon, which was released as a double-LP in 1977 (and years later as a single CD). It was recorded at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kansas, the Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, Kiel Auditorium in Saint Louis, Missouri, and Alex Cooley's Electric Ballroom in Atlanta, Georgia.

In 2011, the Japanese CD reissue restores all the songs to its original full length, including both "Gary's Guitar Solo" and "Little Queenie".
