A Tribute to Jack Johnson is a studio album and soundtrack by jazz trumpeter, composer, and bandleader Miles Davis. It was released on February 24, 1971. The album was conceived by Davis for Bill Cayton's documentary of the same name, on the life of boxer Jack Johnson. It's two 25-minute-plus tracks were produced from recordings made on February 18 and April 7, 1970, at 30th Street Studio in New York City.
