The Thieving Magpie (La Gazza Ladra) is a double live album by the British neo-progressive rock band Marillion. It was named after the introductory piece of classical music the band used before coming on stage during the Clutching at Straws tour 1987–1988, the overture to Rossini's opera La gazza ladra, which translates as "The Thieving Magpie".

TrackList: Cd One: 01. Intro-La Gazza Ladra (2:45) 02. Slainte Mhath (4:48) 03. He knows you know (5:12) 04. Chelsea Monday (7:59) 05. Freaks (7:59) 06. Jigsaw (6:24) 07. Punch and Judy (3:22) 08.

But unlike that seamlessly assembled mini live album, it does suffer from the occasional silence between tracks, or even noticeable variations in sound quality, crowd noise, and general ambiance. Sure, most listeners won't give a hoot about such details when faced with the sheer creative breadth (some would say absurdity) of such Marillion magnum opuses as "Fugazi," "Script for a Jester's Tear," and "Chelsea Monday" to name but a few.

Pseudo Silk Kimono (Live), 02:19. La Gazza Ladra (Live), 02:45.
