''Ghost Town'' is the fifteenth studio album by the country rock band Poco, released September 20, 1982. The Atlantic Records label debut of Poco, ''Ghost Town'' was the final album by Poco to feature the group lineup who had played on Poco's 1978 breakout album ''Legend'', as the 1984 Poco album release '' Inamorata'' would not feature Charlie Harrison.

''Ghost Town'' marked Poco's move to Atlantic Records with no resultant comeback peaking at #195 on the album chart in ''Billboard'' magazine, well below the peak of the group's final MCA album ''Cowboys & Englishmen'' which had been released in February 1982 to reach a chart peak of #131. The first single from ''Ghost Town'' was the title cut which failed to reach the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100, "bubbling under" with a peak of #1 ...
