Swingin' the '20s is an album by saxophonist Benny Carter's Quartet with pianist Earl Hines, recorded in 1958 and released on the Contemporary label.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "but the results of this 1958 session are relaxed rather than explosive. Carter and Hines explore a dozen tunes with respect and light swing, but one wishes that there were a bit more competitiveness to replace some of the mutual respect".
