Joe Williams Live! A Swingin' Night at Birdland is a 1962 live album by the American jazz singer Joe Williams recorded at the Birdland jazz club in New York City.[2]

Scott Yanow, reviewing the album for Allmusic, praises the "strong quintet" accompanying Williams and his "well-rounded and thoroughly enjoyable set".[2]

The initial Billboard review from October 27, 1962, listed the album as having 'Strong Sales Potential' and described it as a "swinging album that shows off [Williams] vibrant vocal style" and that he "comes through with exciting performances of blues and ballads".[3]
