The Live Tapes Vol. 5 is a live album by Australian rock band Cold Chisel, released on 11 December 2020. The album was recorded at the Bondi Lifesaver on 29 February 1980. The recording were captured on two multitrack tapes, after 43 shows over 56 days.[1] It was recorded three days before band began recording their landmark album East, and just six months prior to the closure of the club itself.[2]

Barnes recounted the times, saying "In 1980, we were fighting fit and hungry, playing every show like it was our last – and often it almost was. We were still playing pubs, with the audience spilling onto the stage and the band spilling into the audience. I was living just around the corner from the Lifesaver - and probably half the audience ended-up back at mine."[1] The songs on the album have previously never been heard, unless you were at the venue on the night.[3]

The Live Tapes Vol. 5 is the fifth in an ongoing series of special live recordings unearthed from Cold Chisel's own archives.
