Live in Prague and Washington (Live in Moscow, Prague & Washington on CD releases) is a live album of improvised experimental music by Chris Cutler and Fred Frith. It was recorded at the 8th Prague "Jazz Days" Festival in Prague in former Czechoslovakia on 25 May 1979, and at the DC Space in Washington, D.C., on 20 December 1979. The album was released by Recommended Records in 1983 on a 45 rpm 12" LP.[1][2][3][4][5] It was Frith and Cutler's first collaborative duo album.

Subscribers to the Live in Prague and Washington LP received a limited edition 7-inch single of a 1979 Cutler and Frith concert recorded in Limoges, France.[6][5] This recording was added to their next collaborative album, Live in Trondheim, Berlin & Limoges, Vol. 2 (1994).[7]

In 1990 Recommended Records re-issued Live in Prague and Washington on CD with a Cuttler and Frith Moscow concert added, and retitled Live in Moscow, Prague & Washington. The new recording was made at the Culture Palace S.P.Gorbunov in Moscow on 31 May 1989.[4]
