"Eligible Bachelors" is the third album by The Monochrome Set.

It was produced by former Steeleye Span member Tim Hart and was the Monochromes Set's first album since the departure of original drummer John Haney. Trouser Press praised the band's "witty intelligence" and said that the album "strips the music down to essential elements — clean, bouncy melodies and gently satirical verse, performed with deceptive facility."

The original LP had a faux white leather sleeve designed by Tom Hardy, better known as guitarist Lester Square. The back cover's liner notes featured raves about the band from various critics from around the world, including London, New York, San Francisco, Japan and Kansas.
