Live at Tralfamadore is the fifth album, and the first live album by the Norwegian band Madrugada. It was released on EMI records in 2005 and went on to become the highest selling release in Norway for that year with the band's previous release The Deep End as the runner up. The songs were recorded at various locations during 2003 and 2005 as noted in the track listing. The powerful, ' You Better Leave ' is the only 'new' song on the album and the only song (so far) unavailable elsewhere as a recorded studio version.
