Kenton Showcase is an album by pianist and bandleader Stan Kenton recorded in early 1954 and originally released as two 10 inch LPs on Capitol, one each featuring compositions and arrangements by Bill Holman and Bill Russo, which were combined as a 12-inch LP in 1955.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "It's a fine showcase for the two talented writers".

All compositions by Bill Russo (tracks 1-8) or Bill Holman (tracks 9-17 & 20) unless noted.
