All Night Session! Vol. 1 is an album by pianist Hampton Hawes from a session recorded the night of November 12th, 1956 at Contemporary's Studios in Los Angeles and released on the Contemporary label.

The Allmusic review states "This studio session contained many elements associated with a live gig: the work took place during regular nightclub performing hours, the improvisations were mostly extended, and there were no alternate takes. A remarkable freshness and spontaneity prevailed throughout the session".
