Pinnacles is an album by jazz trombonist and arranger J. J. Johnson recorded in 1979 for the Milestone label.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow observed "Although not quite an essential set, J.J. Johnson is in excellent form on this date".All About Jazz said "This is deep ‘Seventies funk, with block horns and lots of percussion. It’s also pretty generic – these guys are more at home playing jazz, and that’s what they should be playing".

All compositions by J. J. Johnson except where noted.
