The Genie is the third studio album by singer-songwriter Rockwell.

Background

The Genie was released in 1986 as the follow-up to Captured. Like its predecessor, the album was a commercial disappointment. Soon after its release, Rockwell left the music industry, but became active again in 2018.

As of 2022, The Genie remains Rockwell's most recent effort, as well as the only album in his discography that has yet to be released on digital streaming services (both Somebody's Watching Me and Captured had seen digital releases in 2021).
