Live in Germany 1983 is a live album. It is a recording of British rock band Atomic Rooster on 1 February 1983, at the Zeche Club in Bochum, Germany.

Former Atomic Rooster guitarist Bernie Tormé released the album, the contents of an old, but still-playable, cassette tape of Jeannie Crane's via his RetroWrek Records label in 2000. The tape was recorded via a single microphone in the audience.

No known live soundboard recording of the 1983 (Crane/Hammond/Tormé) lineup of Atomic Rooster exist. Therefore, despite being of relatively poor audio quality, this album has great significance to fans of the band's later years.
