Misty Roses was an LP album by The Sandpipers released by A&M Records in 1967. The album reached #135 on the Billboard chart and the first track, "Cuando Salí de Cuba," made #3 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.

The December 23, 1967 issue of Billboard Magazine reviewed the album:

The Sandpipers have established themselves as good album sellers and this new entry should sustain their sales pace. The title song is a winner and will draw plays, as will the rest of the solid repertoire.

Catalog numbers were LP-135/SP-4135 in the U.S. and Canada, and AMLS912 in the U.K. Other international releases included Australia (Mayfair SMF66-9924), Austria (A&M 212 026), Brazil (Fermata FB-207), Columbia (Fermata LPF 24-46), Germany (A&M 212 026), South Africa (A&M LAM 2032), Spain (A&M/Hispavox HDAS 371-14), and Taiwan (First S-FL-1575, orange vinyl, and Bell SWL-1137, red vinyl). The album was reissued in 1974 on the U.K. Mayfair label.
