Live at Newport is the fifth and first live album by jazz pianist McCoy Tyner. It was recorded at the 1963 Newport Jazz Festival and released on the Impulse! label in 1964. It features performances by Tyner with Clark Terry, Charlie Mariano, Bob Cranshaw and Mickey Roker.
The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine states that "It's straight-ahead hard bop in the best possible sense — accessible but stimulating, engaging and vibrant from beginning to end".
