The Bassist!, is an album by jazz bassist Sam Jones recorded in 1979 and released on the Interplay label.

The Allmusic review called it "well played post-bop music" and states "Virtually all of Sam Jones' occasional dates as a leader featured him in a purely supportive role with a medium-size all-star group. This set is a bit different, for Jones is often in the forefront, heading a trio".
