I Remember Miles is a studio album by Shirley Horn, released June 9, 1998. It was recorded December 5–7, 1997 and is a tribute to Miles Davis. The cover features a drawing Miles Davis once made of Horn and himself. The album lasts 52 minutes and 54 seconds, was released by Verve, and was produced by Shirley Horn, Richard Seidel, and Sheila Mathis. It came after Loving You (1997) and before You're My Thrill (2001).

The collection earned Horn the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance at the 41st Grammy Awards (1999).

Reception: AllMusic reviewer Richard S. Ginell said Horn’s quiet, relaxed singing suits Miles’ brooding persona, making this a solid, wistful tribute. He noted that while a Miles tribute might seem odd given Miles Davis’s forward-looking spirit, Horn effectively reveals the sensitive side of the legend.
