Bill Wyman is the third solo studio album by the English rock musician Bill Wyman, released on 26 March 1982 by A&M Records. The album reached No. 55 on the UK Albums Chart.

Unlike his previous studio albums, Bill Wyman is largely in the new wave-style, with heavy use of synthesisers, and drum machines, and was his first studio album in six years following Stone Alone (1976), after feeling that his first two studio albums "weren't very good", and that a solo career was not for him, but that it was the only way that he'd be able to release his own songs, when other artists weren't interested in recording them.

The song "(Si Si) Je Suis un Rock Star" was the biggest hit single off the album, making the top 20 in five different countries, and "Come Back Suzanne" made No. 12 in Australia. The album features guest musicians Chris Rea, Brian Setzer and Slim Jim Phantom of Stray Cats, Dave Mattacks of Fairport Convention and Terry Taylor of Tucky Buzzard.
