New Recording is a solo album from Scottish rock musician Ricky Ross and member of Deacon Blue. It was produced by Ross and former Love and Money keyboardist Paul McGeechan.

After Ross' previous album's focus on hard edged electric guitar, New Recording pulled the plug. This second post-Deacon Blue solo effort is a much more intimate work – a melodic mix of piano or acoustic guitar and ambient, often dreamy, keyboard effects and sound samples.

Of note to Deacon Blue fans, the album includes a re-recorded version of "The Undeveloped Heart", which appeared on Deacon Blue's Ooh Las Vegas compilation album.

There was no single release from this album, but a yet-again remixed version of "Undeveloped Heart" was subsequently released on The Undeveloped Heart EP.
