Shelly Manne & His Friends is a jazz album by drummer Shelly Manne with pianist André Previn and bassist Leroy Vinnegar recorded in 1956 and released on the Contemporary label.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "This initial release from the group, as with all of the later sets, is really a showcase for the remarkable piano playing of Previn who was not even 27 yet but already had a dozen years of major league experience behind him".
