Theme Music from "The James Dean Story" is a 1956 soundtrack album to the James Dean biopic, The James Dean Story composed by Leith Stevens and featuring trumpeter Chet Baker and saxophonist Bud Shank.

Lindsay Planer of Allmusic states, "the vast majority of the material is little more than ersatz-cool filler, bearing little distinction. From an historical perspective this seems almost criminal, especially in light of the inordinate talent corralled for the project".

All compositions by Leith Stevens except as indicated
