Sophisticated Giant is a jazz album by saxophonist Dexter Gordon, recorded in 1977 by an eleven-piece band playing tunes arranged by trombone player Slide Hampton.

The album marked Gordon's return to the United States after a long residency in Europe.

The Bay State Banner wrote that "Slide Hampton's library of duets, solos, rhythm, harmony, and intense ensemble choruses have variety, but also a consistent deployment of moods and gambits.

"[4] AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow called the album "an excellent acquisition.
