Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy is a studio album by Return to Forever. It was released in 1973 by Polydor. It was the first album not to feature Flora Purim, Airto and Joe Farrell, and marked a shift away from the largely acoustic fusion they created. Drummer Lenny White and guitarist Bill Connors make their first appearances with the group. Drawing on rock and funk, the album emphasized electric instruments more than Return to Forever's previous albums.
