Gap Band V Jammin' is an album by The Gap Band, released in 1983 on Total Experience Records. The album was reissued on CD by Mercury Records, Total Experience's distributor at the time. In 2009 the album was remastered by PTG Records including "Party Train" (Special Dance Mix). Contrary to the title, the album is actually the Gap Band's seventh album.

The album reached #2 on the Black Albums chart and #28 on the Pop Albums chart. The album produced the singles "Party Train" (#3 R&B) and "Jam the Motha'" (#16 R&B). With the exception of "Party Train" and "Smile" (which were co-produced by label owner Lonnie Simmons), the album was produced by oldest brother Ronnie Wilson. To date, this is the Gap Band's last gold album.
