The Unicorn is the second album by Irish folk music group The Irish Rovers, released in 1967.
The title track The Unicorn, a recording of Shel Silverstein's poem, reached #7 in the U.S. Despite having virtually nothing to do with Ireland or Irish culture, the song remains popular in Irish pubs to this day.
The Unicorn song is also included on "The Irish Rovers Gems" double disk (1996), and on their 40th Anniversary CD, "40 Years A-Rovin'" (Rover Records, 2005).
