Uptown Conversation is the second album led by the jazz double bass player Ron Carter, recorded in 1969 and first released on the Embryo label.

The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos said, "Ron Carter's Uptown Conversation may very well be the most intriguing, challenging, and resonant statement of many he has made over the years as a leader ...Considering the music Ron Carter played preceding and following this effort, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more diverse, intellectually stimulating, enlivened, and especially unrestricted musical statement in his long and enduring career." - Wikipedia
