Absent Lovers: Live in Montreal is a live album (2-CD set) by the band King Crimson, recorded on July 11, 1984 and released in 1998. It is compiled from the early and late shows performed on the final night of their 1984 Three of a Perfect Pair tour, the band's last performances until the warm-up shows in Argentina ten years later, prior to the recording of the THRAK album. The two complete shows were released in 2024 as the final release of the King Crimson Collector's Club.
