Live Magnetic Air is a live album by Canadian rock band Max Webster. It was recorded on 13 September 1979 at the Lyric Theatre in Kitchener and 14 September 1979 at War Memorial Hall in Guelph, with two shows played at each venue each night. The album was released on 22 October 1979 in Canada by Anthem Records and has been certified gold by the Canadian Recording Industry Association.

The album was released in the United States on Capitol Records. In the United Kingdom a rare alternative to this release was made available. Seeing as Max Webster had two prior releases in the UK, Capitol-EMI released Magnetic Air, which allowed new fans to hear some of the live portions of the North American released Live Magnetic Air, as well as selections from the first two Max Webster releases Max Webster and High Class in Borrowed Shoes.
