Have Trumpet, Will Excite! is a 1959 studio album by trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie.
The Penguin Guide to Jazz rates the album three stars and states that "there's a case for saying that this is one of the best of all Gillespie's small-group albums: the playing has a steely refinement that makes the audacious moments stand out even further, the relatively neutral setting puts a more decisive face on the trumpet choruses, and it's a rare chance to hear Gillespie work through what might have been a hard-bop programme of standard tunes." Ronnie Lankford's AllMusic review says of the album, "Gillespie and the band, seem to say, "We can play old swing tunes, but wouldn't it be cool if we turned them inside out?" This approach, along with sharp solos, gives the material an exciting edge."
