This list of Lupin the Third soundtracks contains collections of music from anime productions in the Lupin the Third franchise. The series follows the globetrotting criminal capers of gentleman thief Lupin III and his gang.

A large number of albums covering the Lupin III franchise have been released by publishers Columbia Music Entertainment and VAP. At least one soundtrack album has been released for each animated series, movie, special, and OVA, in addition to compilation and remix albums. Bandleader Yuji Ohno has composed most of the series' music, beginning with the second television series in 1977. Lupin III soundtracks typically fall under the genre of jazz.

First television series
The music for the first series was created by Takeo Yamashita, with vocal performances on tracks by Charlie Kosei.

Two singles were released on December 10, 1971, and January 20, 1972.

The Original BGM Collection was released as an LP by Nippon Columbia on March 25, 1980. This was later reissued on CD on March 14, 2007, for the 40th anniversary of the original Manga.

Music from the series was also released on 2 albums, Lupin III 71’ Me Tracks published by VAP on February 21, 1999 and Lupin III The 1st Series Music Anthology, published by Nippon Columbia on March 21, 2003. The songs and background music on both albums were using tapes that had sound effects layered on-top of the music. Due to a loss of the original master tape for the background music, the music from the series was recreated by Takeo Yamashita and released as Rebirth From '71 Series on January 21, 2003.
