Third Stage is the third album by hard rock band Boston released in October 1986 on MCA Records. The album was recorded at Tom Scholz' Hideaway Studio over a three-year period "between floods and power failures".

After winning a legal battle with CBS, Tom Scholz switched their recording label to MCA Records. The first track on this album, "Amanda", actually written in 1980, became the band's only #1 single. The track reached and stayed at #1 for two weeks in November 1986.
