Going Public is the third solo album by Beach Boys member Bruce Johnston, released in May 1977 by Columbia Records. It is his only solo album recorded after joining the Beach Boys, made during a period when he had temporarily left.

The album contains re-recordings of two of Johnston's compositions with the band, "Deirdre" and "Disney Girls," as well as "I Write the Songs" which had been a No. 1 hit for Barry Manilow the year prior.
