The First Barbarians: Live from Kilburn is a concert album plus DVD by Ronnie Wood and band. The material was recorded and filmed in July 1974 at one of two performances at London's Kilburn Gaumont State Theatre to promote Wood's album I've Got My Own Album to Do.^{[1] [2]}

At the time of the concert the band was billed as Woody and Friends.^[1] The name First Barbarians is an allusion to The New Barbarians, the band Wood put together for a six-week tour in 1979, whose lineup included three of the musicians who played at the July 1974 Kilburn gigs (Wood, Keith Richards and Ian McLagan).
