The Magic Touch is a 1962 album by jazz pianist and arranger Tadd Dameron and His Orchestra, released on Riverside Records. It was also Dameron's final completed work before his death three years later.

The AllMusic review says of the line-up that "one has to be in awe of them, and that only Dameron was able to convene such a band of extraordinary jazz performers in their prime."

The album has since been reissued many times on Original Jazz Classics.
