Rick Danko in Concert was Canadian musician Rick Danko's second solo release, issued in 1997 as the first release from Woodstock Records, a small label in which Danko and the Band had interests. Featuring live recordings of eight tracks previously issued on both early-period and late-period Band albums (with a cover of "Don't Mess Up a Good Thing" added to give keyboardist Aaron Hurwitz a vocal shot), it was culled from two low-fidelity live shows at the Orpheum Theatre, Boston, Massachusetts, on 22 February 1997, and Atomic Productions, Clinton, New Jersey, on 6 March 1997.

The album features stripped-down arrangements, as only Danko (mostly sticking to guitar), Aaron Hurwitz (piano and accordion) and Band drummer Randy Ciarlante are present.
