Rough Edges is the seventh album and sixth studio album by Ben E. King. After not making any new albums for a few years, King released this album with Maxwell, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records. This would be the only full-length LP released on Maxwell, with King transferring to Mandala in 1972.

Tracks 1, 3 and 5 are not medleys but (what are now known as) mash-ups, where he goes back and forth between each song throughout the track.
