Live at the Deaf Club is a live album released by the Dead Kennedys in 2004. The actual performance took place at the San Francisco Club of the Deaf on March 3, 1979.

The performance was unique in that this was the last time their rhythm guitarist 6025 performed with them. It also includes original drummer Ted, later replaced in February 1981 by D.H. Peligro. Also, songs such as "Straight A's", "Short Songs", "Gaslight" and their covers of "Back in the USSR" and "Have I the Right" are not found on any other DK album (The Deaf Club recordings of "Shorts Songs" and "Straight A's" are featured on the compilation album Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death and the hard-to-find Can You Hear Me? Live at the Deaf Club). "Back in Rhodesia" is an early version of "When Ya Get Drafted" with a different chorus than the final version. "Kill the Poor" is also a "disco" version minus the introduction.

The album has drawn fire from former lead singer Jello Biafra, though several reviewers have given it good reviews, for example PopMatters and Punknews,org.
