Sea Changes is an album by pianist Tommy Flanagan recorded in 1996 for the Japanese Alfa Jazz label. In the United States, the album was released in 1997 by Evidence Music.
Five of the album's eleven compositions were recorded by Flanagan in 1957 for his debut album, Overseas, including "Relaxin' at Camarillo" and four Flanagan compositions ("Beat's Up", "Eclypso", "Verdandi" and "Dalarna"). The other titles are thematically related to the earlier album, which was recorded in Stockholm, either by their connection to the idea of the sea ("How Deep Is the Ocean", "Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea", "I Cover the Waterfront", "Sea Changes"), referencing Stockholm ("Dear Old Stockholm"), or, in the case of Ma Rainy's "See See Rider", including a homophone of "sea" in the title.
