Walk into Light is the debut solo album by Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson, released in 1983. (The album A was originally intended to be released as an Ian Anderson album, but instead was released as a Jethro Tull album.)

Although a solo album, Walk into Light was perhaps the most collaborative work Anderson had done up to that point, as then-Jethro Tull keyboardist Peter-John Vettese co-wrote five songs and had a strong influence on the album's style and sound.
