Chris Spedding is the fifth, self-titled studio album by English singer-songwriter and guitarist Chris Spedding. It was a conscious attempt by Spedding to start a career under his own name and to have some 'hit singles' to establish a "Chris Spedding Sound".

2013 reissue

Chris Spedding was reissued on 14 October 2013 by Culture Factory USA, an independent label that specialises in cult artists. The reissue CD was packaged in a miniature replica of the original quality vinyl packaging complete with an inner sleeve that features the original lyrics, photographs of Spedding and credits for the album. The label side of the CD features a replica of what the original RAK label looked like at the time of issue and even features "grooves" as if the black CD is made of vinyl.

The reissues did not have any additional outtakes or bonus tracks.
