Party is a 1981 album by early punk musician Iggy Pop. It peaked at number 166 on Billboard's Top 200 albums. When Arista heard the album, they brought in former Monkee producer, Tommy Hart, to remix "Bang Bang". It was released as a single, charting at #35 on the Billboard club play singles chart, and was later covered by David Bowie.

Party is the last of Pop's three albums with Arista Records, following New Values and Soldier. The Party tour was documented on the DVD Live in San Francisco. Buddha reissued the album in 2000 with two bonus tracks, "Speak to me" and Iggy's rendition of the Johnny Mercer classic "One for My Baby (and One More for the Road)".
