Restless (Skydiggers Album)
''Restless'' is an album by the Canadian band Skydiggers, released in 1992. It was the band's most commercially successful release, and produced their biggest chart hit, "A Penny More". The band and album were nominated for two Juno Awards. In 1996, the album disappeared from Canadian record stores after the band's label, FRE Records, filed for bankruptcy.

As a result, in 1999, they released an alternate version of the album, '' Still Restless: The Lost Tapes''.
