Just a Gigolo is the soundtrack album for the 1978 West German film of the same name, directed by David Hemmings and starring David Bowie, Marlene Dietrich, Curt Jürgens and Kim Novak. The album features period-style vocal and instrumental tracks alongside contemporary 1970s recordings, reflecting the film's setting in post-World War I Berlin.

The soundtrack includes performances by Bowie, The Manhattan Transfer, Pasadena Roof Orchestra, The Ragtimers, and Dietrich. Produced and supervised by Jack Fishman, the album was primarily recorded at Olympic Studios in London and has been reissued in expanded form by Cherry Red Records, including a resequenced tracklist and a 24-page illustrated booklet.
