Ahh...Laine! is the first solo album by Wings guitarist Denny Laine, released in 1973. While not released until November 1973, Ahh...Laine! was recorded pre-Wings, after Denny returned from Spain, post-Electric String Band.

The title comes from the Gravy Granules slogan "Aah! Bisto". A melodic folk-rock album, it was not released at the time of recording due to how busy Laine was with other projects at time. On the front cover he has a Wings T-shirt, however he did perform some of these songs before joining Paul and Linda McCartney in the band. The album was given an official release in the UK on Wizard and in the US on Reprise/Warner Bros. Records in 1973.
