A New Conception is the third album by American saxophonist Sam Rivers, recorded in 1966 and released on the Blue Note label. The album features Rivers' interpretation of seven jazz standards.
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars and stated "It's challenging music that remains accessible, since it reconfigures familiar items in new, intriguing ways. The sheer skill in Rivers' arrangements once again confirms his large, unfortunately underappreciated, talent".
