Roller Coaster Weekend is the debut solo studio album by American rock musician Joe Vitale, released in 1974 by Atlantic Records. The album wasn't a commercial success and was his last solo album until 1981's Plantation Harbor (released seven years later). After the recording of Roller Coaster Weekend, Vitale would join the Stills-Young band and tour with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young line-up, as well as the Eagles.

The song "Falling," was borrowed in part for Joe Walsh's song "At the Station", later recorded and released on Walsh's fourth solo album But Seriously, Folks... (1978)
