"In the Tradition" is a 1964 album by American folksinger Dave Van Ronk and The Red Onion Jazz Band. It is unusual in the fact that the tracks are evenly split between Van Ronk and the Red Onions.

"In the Tradition" is out-of-print but is included in the 2002 Fantasy Records CD reissue "Two Sides of Dave Van Ronk" which also contains most of "Your Basic Dave Van Ronk". Some songs are also included in the Big Beat compilation "Hesitation Blues".
