Anima latina (Latin soul) is the ninth studio album by the Italian singer-songwriter Lucio Battisti.

The album was arranged and produced by the lyricist Mogol and Battisti in its entirety, with performances by various semi-unknown musicians.

It is considered one of Battisti's masterpieces for signaling a significant departure from his previous records.

[4] Anima latina was meant by Battisti as an experiment, "the exact point of rupture between [his] yesterday and [his] tomorrow".

[5] The album was conceived after a trip which Battisti took to South America and is particularly influenced by Brazilian music.
