Money Jungle is a jazz album by Duke Ellington with Charles Mingus and Max Roach recorded on September 17, 1962 and released in February 1963 by United Artists Jazz.[3]

The LP reworks a few older compositions ("Caravan" and "Solitude"); however, Ellington wrote the bulk of the material specifically for the LP.

All songs composed by Duke Ellington solely (except where otherwise stated).
