Unconditionally Guaranteed is the eighth LP by Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band, released in 1974.

Upon release it was criticised for being too commercial; even so, it failed to give Beefheart any real chart success, peaking at No.

Immediately after recording of the album the entire Magic Band quit – as biographer Mike Barnes has stated, "[Beefheart] was in effect sacked by his own group.

"[5] They had become increasingly disenchanted with the lack of financial success, having subsisted on food stamps and donations from their parents, and with Beefheart's tyrannical control over the group.
