Kihnspiracy is a studio album by the Greg Kihn Band, released in 1983 by Beserkley Records.[1] The album features the hit single "Jeopardy", the band's only top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.[2] It reached number 2 in May 1983, beneath Michael Jackson's "Beat It". A parody of the song, "I Lost on Jeopardy", was released by "Weird Al" Yankovic in 1984.

The album marks the group's first line-up change since 1975, with Greg Douglass taking over as lead guitar player after the departure of Dave Carpender. The band supported the album with a North American tour.[3]
