James Spaulding (born July 30, 1937 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a jazz alto saxophonist and flautist.

After a period in the US Army he moved to Chicago in 1957. There he joined the Sun Ra Arkestra, making several recordings and remaining through 1959. He subsequently freelanced as a studio musician and occasionally led his own groups before returning to Indianapolis in 1961.

On relocating to New York City in 1963, he recorded extensively for Blue Note Records as a sideman.

He was also a member of the World Saxophone Quartet for a time.
