This Is It! (The A&M Years 1979–1989), released in February 1997, is a Joe Jackson compilation double album, covering his period with A&M Records between the years 1979 and 1989.

Allmusic journalist Stephen Thomas Erlewine notes that the album does not include any material from Laughter & Lust, but otherwise presents a comprehensive overview of Jackson's work. It is duly noted that Laughter & Lust was released only in 1991, apart from the fact that its release was on the Virgin Records music label.

In his book The Great Rock Discography journalist Martin C. Strong awards the album 8 out of 10.

All songs written and arranged by Joe Jackson, except where noted.
