Mr Crowley Live EP was an EP released by Ozzy Osbourne in 1980. It had three tracks performed at the Southampton, UK, show that same year. The track list included "Mr. Crowley", "Suicide Solution" and "You Said It All", a song which was written in the sound-check for that show and, according to several sources, was actually recorded in the soundcheck with crowd-noise subsequently added. This was the only live recording of Randy Rhoads ever to be released prior to Tribute with the exception of the live B-side of "I Don't Know" on the 7" of Over The Mountain / Flying High Again.

In 1981 the EP was re-released as a picture disc. Side 1 featured an outtake photo from the Diary of a Madman LP cover shoot. Side 2 had another outtake photo from the Diary of a Madman album photo shoot, this time of a close up of Ozzy. The back jacket featured the original EP front cover of Ozzy in concert. This picture disc is highly sought after by collectors.
