The Golden Years is the first live recording by English rock band Motörhead, released in April 1980 via Bronze Records. It reached number 8 on the UK charts at the time.
There was a distinct lack of radio play for the single; the radio stations claiming the vocals were too low in the mix – so after remixing the tapes a 7" single (new catalogue number of BRO92DJ) was issued to radio stations with just "Leaving Here" on the A-side and "Stone Dead Forever" on the B-side. It was recorded on their 1980 European tour, the same tour as the 1981 live album No Sleep 'til Hammersmith track "Iron Horse / Born to Lose", which is also unknown as to which venue any of these tracks were recorded.
Despite the lack of radio exposure, on 1 May 1980 the band had managed to secure an appearance on the BBC TV's weekly chart show, Top of the Pops, to promote its upcoming release. Frontman Lemmy recalls in his autobiography, White Line Fever, that "the songs were pretty badly recorded, but the record got in the charts
