The Merry-Go-Round is the only album by 1960s pop group the Merry-Go-Round. It was released in the United States in November 1967 and reached No. 190 on the Billboard Top LPs chart.
Soon afterward bass player Bill Rinehart departed, and was replaced by Rick Dey of the Vejtables. Several further singles, including "She Laughed Loud"/"Had to Run Around", "Come Ride, Come Ride"/"She Laughed Loud", "Listen, Listen!"/"Missing You" and "'Til the Day After"/"Highway", were released in 1967 and 1968 but failed to chart. After fan interest in the group dissipated, they decided to disband in 1969.
Singer Emitt Rhodes was the main songwriter for the group, writing or co-writing eleven of the twelve songs on their only album. Rhodes went on to produce four solo albums from 1970 to 1973, and one last album in 2016.
