The Thrill of It All is the fourth studio album by British hard rock band Thunder.[2][3] It was released in February 1997[4] on the independent B Lucky label following their departure from EMI.

Luke Morley had to play bass as well as lead guitar on this album as regular bassist Mikael Höglund was unavailable for personal reasons - Höglund would subsequently leave the band in the summer of 1996, with former Then Jericho bassist Chris Childs joining as his replacement prior to the tour that followed the album's release.[5] The album was moderately successful, reaching number 14 on the UK Album Chart[6] with the single "Don't Wait Up For Me" reaching number 27 on the UK Singles Chart.
A remastered 2-CD Special Edition of the album containing various b-sides and acoustic versions of tracks from the original on the second disc was released in 2004 by Sanctuary Records.
