Jazz Impressions of Lawrence of Arabia is the third album led by vibraphonist and composer Walt Dickerson featuring theme music from the film Lawrence of Arabia (1962) which was recorded in 1963 and first released on the Dauntless label. It was later released on the Audio Fidelity label under the title, Vibes in Motion.

The Allmusic site awarded the album 4½ stars, stating "This effort from the vibraphonist stretches the parameters of Maurice Jarre's themes".Down Beat reviewer Harvey Pekar wrote "Many jazz versions of movie soundtracks are weighed down with uninteresting material, but this album is better than most others partly because it has passable thematic material. Dickerson's arranging is eclectic."
