Al Fairweather (June 12, 1927 - 1993) was a British jazz musician, born in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Educated at the city's Royal High School, Fairweather completed his National Service in 1949 , serving in Egypt.

In 1952 along with Sandy Brown and Stan Greig he went south to London recorded a number of sides for Esquire Records as the Sandy Brown and later Fairweather-Brown All Stars.

When Brown went back to Scotland to complete his architecture studies, Fairweather joined the Cy Laurie Jazz Band. His powerful, Louis Armstrong-inspired lead was a perfect foil for Laurie's Johnny Dodds approach.

Following a second career as a teacher in Harrow, London, Fairweather returned to Edinburgh in 1987.
