Lucky is the second solo album by Marty Balin. It was released in 1983 on EMI America Records. The album reached No. 156 on the Billboard Top LPs & Tape chart. As a subtle tribute to Balin's friend and former bandmate Jack Casady, he recorded a cover of "Heart of Stone", an original written by Brian Marnell from Casady's new wave group SVT.
