Between the Buttons is een album van de band The Rolling Stones. Het is het vijfde album uitgegeven in het Verenigd Koninkrijk en het zevende in de Verenigde Staten. Het werd uitgegeven in 1967. Er zit een verschil tussen de tracklist van de Amerikaanse en Britse uitgave.

In 2003 bereikte het album #355 in de 500 beste albums aller tijden van het magazine Rolling Stone.

In augustus 2002 werd het album geremasterd en werd een sacd-Digi-pack, uitgegeven door ABKCO Records.

Between the Buttons is the fifth British and seventh American studio album by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released on 20 January 1967 in the UK and 10 February in the US. Reflecting the band's brief foray into psychedelia and baroque pop balladry during the era, the album is among their most eclectic works; multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones frequently abandoned his guitar during the sessions in favour of instruments such as organ, marimba, dulcimer, vibraphone, kazoo, and theremin. Keyboard contributions came from two session players: former Rolling Stones member Ian Stewart (piano, organ) and frequent contributor Jack Nitzsche (piano, harpsichord). Between the Buttons would be the last album produced by Andrew Loog Oldham, who had, to this point, acted as the band's manager and produced all of their albums.

As with prior albums, the American and British versions contained slightly different track listings. The American version of Between the Buttons, which includes "Let's Spend the Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday", is on the 2003 and 2012 versions of Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Between the Buttons reached number 3 on the British album charts and number 2 on the US Billboard Top LPs chart.
