Planet Drum is a world music album by Mickey Hart, a musician and musicologist who was a member of the rock band the Grateful Dead.

Hart's concept for Planet Drum was to play drum music with percussionists from around the world, and incorporate their different musical styles and traditions into a new global sound. The musicians on the Planet Drum album were from the continental United States (Hart), Puerto Rico (Giovanni Hidalgo and Frank Colón), India (Zakir Hussain and T.H. "Vikku" Vinayakram), Nigeria (Sikiru Adepoju and Babatunde Olatunji), and Brazil (Airto Moreira and his wife, vocalist Flora Purim).

Planet Drum won the Grammy Award for Best World Music Album of 1991, the first year in which the award was given. It reached number 1 on the Billboard chart for Top World Music Albums. Mark Rowland of Musician wrote in 1996: "Starting with Rolling Thunder back in 1972, Hart produced dozens of albums by the likes of Babatunde Olatunji, the Gyuto Monks, and Zakir Hussain, along with his own adventurous projects, exploring the cross-cultural possibilities of world-beat percussion to increasing popular and critical acclaim, which culminated in a Grammy award for his Planet Drum in 1992."
