Barking Spiders Live: 1983 is a live album by Australian rock band Cold Chisel. It was recorded during the final performances of their Last Stand tour in 1983, at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. The name of the album derives from a name the band used occasionally when playing warm-up shows before tours. A "barking spider" is a slang term for flatulence.
The album spent 20 weeks in the Australian charts, peaking at number 14.[1]
