"The Groover" is a 1973 single by the British glam rock band T. Rex. Neither the track nor its B-side are taken from an album, however they are often added as bonus material on re-releases of the 1974 album Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow.

The single was in the UK charts for a total of nine weeks, peaking at No. 4,[1] making it the last T. Rex song to enter the top ten during Marc Bolan's lifetime.[2][3][4][5][6]
