"Young and Restless" is the fourth studio album by the Canadian rock band, Prism. It was originally released in 1980 by the record label Capitol. The album is notably the last album by the band to feature Ron Tabak as the lead vocalist, and it is also the last album to feature their long-time producer, Bruce Fairbairn.

The album was received negatively by the majority of music critics. It was also a commercial disappointment, being their first album failing to chart on the Billboard 200.

Critical reception

Reviewing for AllMusic critic Mike DeGagne wrote of the album "The solid instrumental sound and confident songwriting that they produced on their last recording have somehow disappeared, and even John Hall's synthesizers can't muster any redemption amongst the album's filler. Young & Restless showed signs of the band declining in all aspects, which was later confirmed on Prism's future releases."[1]
