Klassics with a "K", was the only full-length album by Kostars, a side project of Luscious Jackson members Vivian Trimble and Jill Cunniff, released in 1996 on Grand Royal.

Fellow Luscious Jackson members Kate Schellenbach and Gabby Glaser contributed drums and lead guitar, respectively, to the album. Both Dean and Gene Ween of Ween contributed as well. The album was engineered by Josephine Wiggs, bass player of the Breeders, marking her first full-length engineering project. It was recorded and mixed in 25 days at Meat and Potatoes Studio, a 16-track home studio put together in the Luscious Jackson rehearsal room.

The duo's only other release was a 7-inch single of the track "Hey Cowboy".
