Live at the Budokan is a live album by the Ian Gillan Band, recorded live on 22 September 1977 in Tokyo, Japan. Originally it was released only in Japan, in March 1978 by EastWorld Records, being Live at the Budokan (EWS-81112) and Live at the Budokan Vol. 2 (EWS81113). Each was a single LP in a gatefold sleeve. Several songs from the set did not make it to the albums, as evidenced by audience tapes.
In August 1983 it was re-issued as a double-album in the UK by Virgin Records, titled Live at the Budokan Volumes I & II (VGD3507), housed in a single LP sleeve. In Australia, it would also be released as a double-album in 1983 (Interfusion L45837). This had a gatefold sleeve, with different artwork to the UK release.
The first CD edition, in 1989, had a banner on the front reading 'The complete double set', yet dropped "My Baby Loves Me" and reordered some tracks. The 2007 remaster restored "My Baby Loves Me", but still finished with a different running order to the original vinyl release.
