"Time Step" is a 1983 album by guitarist Leo Kottke. It is his last recording on the Chrysalis label. It is the first of two Kottke albums produced by T-Bone Burnett, the second being "My Father's Face".

After the release of "Time Step" Kottke went into a three year seclusion. When he returned later in 1986, it was as a guest musician on "The Blind Leading the Naked" by Violent Femmes, then his own releases with a new direction and picking style.

"Time Step" was re-issued on CD by BGO (CD255) in 1995.
