Damaged in Transit is a live album by bassist Steve Swallow recorded on tour in France in December 2001 and released on the Xtra Watt label in 2003.

[1][2][3] Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars and the review by Thom Jurek states: "Swallow uses the gig forum to explore that preternatural jazz monster: counterpoint.

[4] The Guardian's review by John Fordham said "Damaged In Transit is a no-frills, flat-out, brilliantly executed piece of stylistically-sweeping jazz jamming, with nothing else to listen to but some very long sax solos on very direct and outwardly simple tunes, underpinned by Swallow's elegant bass-playing and Adam Nussbaum's rumbly, Elvin Jones-like drumming".

[5] In JazzTimes Stuart Nicholson wrote: "Damaged in Transit is a masterpiece of fin de siecle postbop, a style doomed to perpetual virtuosic recapitulation".

[9] In Jazz Review John Kelman wrote: "A significant change from the quintet format, this may be Swallow’s most intensely engaging album in a career that spans over forty years... What is remarkable about Damaged in Transit is how full the trio sounds.
