"Groovin"' is the third album by rock band The Young Rascals. The album was released on July 31, 1967 and rose to #5 on the Billboard Top LPs chart.

The front cover design was conceived (but not illustrated) by the Rascals' drummer Dino Danelli. Affixed to the front cover was one of two stickers indicating: "THIS LP HAS THE BIG HIT", followed by either "How Can I Be Sure" (as shown in the cover photo on the right) or "A Girl Like You" as both tracks climbed into the Top 10.

This was the last album on which the band was billed as "The Young Rascals"; their next album, "Once Upon a Dream", would be credited to simply "The Rascals."
