The UK Jazz & Blues Albums Chart is a record chart which ranks the best-selling jazz and blues albums in the United Kingdom. Compiled and published by the Official Charts Company, the data is based on each album's weekly physical sales, digital downloads and streams. In 2007, 52 charts were published with seven albums at number one. Frank, the debut album by Amy Winehouse, was the first number-one album of the year, having reached the top spot for the first time in the last week of 2006. Michael Bublé's fifth album Call Me Irresponsible was the last number-one album of the year, spending the last two months of the year atop the chart.

Frank and Call Me Irresponsible were the most successful albums on the UK Jazz & Blues Albums Chart in 2007 – they each spent 18 weeks at number one, with the former's longest run of 12 weeks and the latter spending two spells of eight weeks each. Norah Jones spent seven weeks atop the chart in 2007 with her third release, Not Too Late. Madeline Peyroux also spent another three weeks atop the chart with her fourth studio album, Half the Perfect World, which was matched by the various artists compilation The Very Best of Latin Jazz. Call Me Irresponsible finished 2007 as the 18th and 66th best-selling albums of the year in the UK.
