On the Boards is the second album by Irish rock band Taste, released in 1970. It is their final studio album and the release that brought Gallagher to prominence, reaching number 18 on the UK album chart. Reviewers have praised its variety and the precision of its ensemble playing, and noted the jazz inflections of Gallagher's guitar and his unaffected vocals. Lester Bangs dubbed it "impressive... progressive blues".
