Helsinki Saturday is a live album by Jandek released in 2009. It is Jandek's 58th release. The album was recorded on Saturday 19 November 2005 at Kulttuuriareena Gloria in Helsinki, Finland. This performance featured Jandek on piano, accompanied by Iro Haarla on harp, and unlike previous performances and album releases is entirely instrumental. The album comprises one hour-long piece, entitled "Sleeping in the Dawn". An excerpt from the performance was released as the first track on the Avanto Festivaali 2005 CD-R. No DVD of the Helsinki Saturday performance has been released by Corwood.

Album cover description

The front cover of this album shows a figure in black standing by a waterfront. This location has been identified by a Jandek list member as being taken on Pohjoisranta, looking towards Laivastokatu on the Katajanokka peninsula. The same member also provided a photograph taken in this location from the same angle as that on the front cover.
