The Bruford Tapes is a 1979 album by the British band Bruford, only issued in the US, Canada and Japan. It was recorded live in Roslyn, New York on July 12, 1979 and was originally broadcast on WLIR radio. Shortly before the performance, Allan Holdsworth left the band and was replaced by John Clark, whose name appears as "the unknown John Clark" on the original back album cover. The recording features live versions of songs from the group's previous two albums Feels Good to Me and One of a Kind.
