Percy is a 1971 film soundtrack by English rock group The Kinks, made for the British comedy film Percy. The songs were written by Ray Davies, and include both standard pop songs and instrumental numbers. This was the band's final album for Pye Records, concluding a 7-year contract. It was not released in the US, and was available for years only as an import.

"Percy" was not a notable critical or popular success, and has never been widely included among the band's catalogue of major, stand-alone albums.
