Layin' in the Cut is the seventh album by American saxophonist James Carter, released on the Atlantic label in 2000. Devoted to free funk in the style of Ornette Coleman's late 1970s and '80s bands, it was one of two Carter albums released on the same day. The other was Chasin' the Gypsy, a tribute to guitarist Django Reinhardt.
