The Innes Book of Records is the third solo album by Neil Innes and was released in 1979 to accompany the BBC television series of the same name. Each episode in the series was an anthology of short music videos featuring Innes and other performers. At the beginning of each episode, a short video showed a man in a spacesuit exploring a deserted house, finding a record player covered in cobwebs, sitting down, and listening to a record, beginning the first song and its accompanying video.

Allmusic's reviewer, Richie Unterberger described it as "imbued with the characteristic droll, wry wit and knack for pastiche of all manners of pop music that typify Innes' work", and noted that it veered "more to Ray Davies territory than comedy rock, though Innes isn't at all imitative of the Kinks.".
