Love on the Rocks is an LP album by Julie London, released by Liberty Records under catalog number LRP-3249 as a monophonic recording in 1963, and later in stereo under catalog number LST-7249 the same year.

Basic tracks were recorded at Liberty Records' new Chicago studios in three late-night sessions after Julie had finished her evening live performances at Mister Kelly's nightclub. Additional tracks were recorded later in Los Angeles, where arranger Pete King also added orchestral overdubs.[3]
