Jimi Plays Monterey is a posthumous live album by Jimi Hendrix released in February 1986. It documents the Jimi Hendrix Experience's performance at the Monterey Pop Festival on June 18, 1967. In 2007, it was superseded by Live at Monterey, produced under the auspices of the family-controlled Experience Hendrix.

Jimi Plays Monterey is also a film directed by D. A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus documenting the same performance as the album, also released in 1986. It is notable for containing several interviews with rock stars, and containing an art piece by Denny Dent during the performance of "Can You See Me", as the song was not filmed.
