Live at the Cafe Au Go Go is the debut album by the American band the Blues Project, recorded live during the Blues Bag four-day concert on the evenings of November 24–27, 1965 at the Cafe Au Go Go in New York City. The recording finished up in January 1966 at the same venue, by which time Tommy Flanders had left the band.[2] They scaled down their usual lengthy arrangements for the album due to time constraints and record label wariness.

Al Kooper believes that it, like the band's other albums, was poorly recorded, and laments how Steve Katz's harmonica on Live at the Cafe Au Go Go "sounds like a duck call".[3]
