Page One is the debut release by American jazz tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson. All Music describes the album as a "particularly strong and historic effort".[1] According to "All About Jazz", Page One, which introduced the Jazz standard "Blue Bossa", is still one of Henderson's "most critically acclaimed albums".[2][3]. PopMatters, by contrast, prefers later works, indicating in one review that Page One "has the careful feel of a leader’s first session".[3]

The album was first re-released on CD in 1988 by Blue Note and has been in production consistently since.
