Over is the sixth studio album by the English singer and songwriter Peter Hammill, released on Charisma Records in April 1977. It was issued for the first time on CD on Virgin Records in the early 1990s, and was reissued again in a remastered version in 2006 with bonus tracks.
The album details the break-up of a long-term relationship with a woman known as Alice. The album was originally to be called Over My Shoulder with a different cover shot in which Hammill was caught looking back over his shoulder with a very mixed expression.
The album was recorded during a period of line-up change for Hammill's band Van der Graaf Generator. It features drummer Guy Evans, future recruit Graham Smith (formerly of String Driven Thing) on violin, and the return of the band's bass player from 1969 to 1970, Nic Potter.
"This Side of the Looking Glass" was re-worked for Hammill's 1984 album The Love Songs.
