Ball is the third studio album by the rock band Iron Butterfly, released on January 17, 1969. After the huge success of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, Iron Butterfly slightly changed its acid-rock sound and experimented with more melodic compositions. However, the band's signature heavy guitars are still noticeable on tracks such as "In the Time of Our Lives" and "It Must Be Love". The album reached number 3 on the Billboard 200 charts, making Ball more successful than In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Ball was certified Gold in March 1969.

The album was recorded in the fall of 1973 and released in 1974 on the Warner Bros. label .Records. It was the first of two albums released by the band on the Warner label.
