Magic Christian Music is the second studio album by the British rock band Badfinger, released on 9 January 1970 on Apple Records. It was their first release under the Badfinger name, having previously released the album Maybe Tomorrow in 1969 under the name The Iveys. It includes the band's first international hit, "Come and Get It", written and produced for them by Paul McCartney.

Of the fourteen tracks, seven were newly recorded for the album while the remaining songs were recycled from Maybe Tomorrow, which had seen only limited release in a handful of international markets, including the singles "Maybe Tomorrow" and "Dear Angie". Three of the new tracks were featured in the film The Magic Christian, which also gives the album its title. However, Magic Christian Music is not an official soundtrack album for the film.
