Full Speed Ahead is an R&B studio album by Táta Vega. It is her first solo album and was released on Motown's Tamla label in 1976.

The album was produced by Trinidadian native Winston Monseque, who was also her manager. In a November 1976 interview, Vega cited "Try Love from the Inside," "Try God," and "Music in My Heart" as her favorite tracks off of the album.

In 2011, the album was digitally remastered and features three bonus tracks. The last two bonus tracks are recordings she made with the group Earthquire.

The track "Love Is All You Need" was later a chart single for High Inergy. The Ashford & Simpson composition, "Keep It Coming" was previously recorded by Valerie Simpson on her second solo album for Motown and Rufus featuring Chaka Khan. Vega also does a cover of the Stevie Wonder song, "Never Had a Dream Come True." In the same November 1976 interview as above, Vega was also compared to Chaka Khan and Stevie Wonder.

On February 18, 2014, the entire album (including the three bonus tracks) were released digitally.
