Lookin' For a Love Again is the sixth studio album by American musician Bobby Womack. The album was released on January 11, 1974, by United Artists Records. The album reached #85 on the Billboard U.S. Pop Charts, and #5 on the Billboard R&B Charts. It included the hit single "Lookin' For A Love", which charted No. 1 on the Billboard R&B Singles chart and #10 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Harry Womack and his other brothers are featured singing background vocals on the album, as they had with previous Bobby releases, and they re-sang their original 1962 hit when they were The Valentinos. Although Bobby had rehearsed the song, he wasn't going to feature it, but eventually went ahead at the insistence of one of his musicians.
