The Other One is the third solo album by American musician and former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Welch. The track "Future Games" is a rerecording of a song first released on the Fleetwood Mac album of the same name in 1971.
Unlike Welch's first two solo albums, it does not feature any contributions from members of Fleetwood Mac, relying instead on contemporaneous members of Welch's touring band for backing vocals and additional songwriting (although the majority of tracks are Welch's own).
The album was reissued as a 2-for-1 CD (the second half being the songs from the follow-up album Man Overboard) by Edsel Records in 1998.

AllMusic | [1] |
The Globe and Mail wrote that credit "should be given as much to the studio wizards as to Welch himself, for this is one of those high-gloss studio jobs, with every lick in place and haunted by the echoes of a million knob adjustments."[2]
