Musical Shapes is the third album by American singer Carlene Carter.

The only song to make the Billboard country singles chart was "Baby Ride Easy," (written by Richard Dobson) a duet with Dave Edmunds of the British rock band Rockpile. At the time of the album's release, Carter was married to Nick Lowe, Edmunds's bandmate in Rockpile; Lowe was the producer of the album. It peaked at number 88 in Australia.
