The Young Ulsterman is the ninth comedy album released by Northern Irish comedian and actor James Young. It was Young's final album to be released before his death in 1975. However, further albums would be released posthumously.

With his return to a mixture of sketches and serious monologues in his previous album, Young again followed that format with his ninth album. Unlike any of his previous albums, however, Young was joined by a cast of supporting players.
