Jacek Kaczmarski's discography includes 11 sutdio albums, 12 live albums, and 2 compilation albums during his lifetime. After his death, it expanded to include 5 box sets, 1 studio album, 1 live album, 3 compilations, and a five-disc DVD album.

Jacek Kaczmarski, over the course of his uninterrupted 25-year artistic career (1976–2001), left behind many recordings. Those published during his lifetime were collected in the box set Syn marnotrawny [pl] (except for Koncert ’97 [pl]), which the artist himself oversaw during its production. However, most recordings were released only after his death, often in the form of compilation box sets (Suplement [pl], Mała Arka Noego [pl], Arka Noego [pl], Ze sceny [pl]), as well as previously unpublished individual albums – Świadectwo [pl], Encore, jeszcze raz [pl] – and as DVDs, such as Scena to dziwna... 1980–2001 [pl]. His discography also includes numerous compilations that continue to be released to this day.
