Skyscraper is the second full-length studio album by David Lee Roth, released during his solo career after his departure from Van Halen.

It was released on January 21, 1988, on Warner Bros. Records, shortly after the commercially and critically successful Eat 'Em and Smile Tour of 1986–1987.

In a 2022 interview with Eonmusic, Vai said that the song "Damn Good" was developed from a piece called "Scandinavian Air Solo", originally slated to appear on his Passion and Warfare album.

Covers of "California Girls" and "Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody", from Roth's 1985 Crazy from the Heat EP, are on some CD re-releases in Europe.

Cash Box called "Stand Up" an "engaging, catchy rock song, with a funky danceable groove"[17] and "Damn Good" a "satisfying and artistic effort".
