A Shout Towards Noon is a 1986 album by guitarist Leo Kottke. It is his first recording on the Private Music label after a 3 year sabatical, largely due to a difficult tendinitis injury in his hand. Due to the injury, Kottke left the steel fingerpicks that helped define his early style behind, and came back with a new sound.

Prior to this release, Kottke composed and recorded the soundtrack for the 1985 Tri-Star Pictures film Little Treasure. He also composed and recorded the soundtrack for the 1986 film Fat Guy Goes Nutzoid.
