One o'Clock Jump is a 1957 (see 1957 in music) album by the American jazz and blues singer Joe Williams, with the Count Basie Orchestra. Ella Fitzgerald is featured in duet with Williams on the first track.

Joe Williams delivers a typically gutsy performance, showcasing his powerful voice, and emotive reading of lyrics.

This album features the Basie standard 'One o'Clock Jump' in three different versions, each one a brilliantly swinging instrumental.
