Take the "A" Train is a live album by American saxophonist Dexter Gordon recorded at the Jazzhus Montmartre in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1967 and first released on the Black Lion label in 1989.

AllMusic critic Scott Yanow stated "Throughout, Dexter Gordon is in consistently creative form, making this CD well worth getting by his fans". On All About Jazz James Nichols said "We hear his immensely personal dry tone, humorous popular song quotes, very creative bebop solos and his listless and steadily paced baritone voice performing master of ceremonies duties. Very enjoyable, pick it up if you run across it".
