Yes We Can is a live jazz album by the World Saxophone Quartet. It was recorded on March 28, 2009, at Kino Babylon in Berlin and released in 2010 by Jazzwerkstatt.

The group on this recording features Hamiet Bluiett on baritone sax, James Carter on soprano and tenor saxes, Kidd Jordan on alto sax, and David Murray on tenor sax and bass clarinet.

The music blends intense free-jazz improvisation with strong ensemble playing. Critics praised the performance for its energy and virtuosity, noting how Murray and Carter drive the set while the quartet maintains a powerful, collaborative sound. The release was described as an optimistic, exhilarating example of the quartet at its vigorous best, balancing fiery solos with rich, melodic textures.
