West a Fool Away is an album by the Swedish rock 'n roll singer Eddie Meduza. It was released in 1984. The album mixed serious English rock songs with funny songs in Swedish. Side 1 had mainly English songs and side 2 was entirely Swedish except for the title track. The title refers to nonsense English sounding lyrics that early Swedish musicians made use of when they forgot the real lyrics.

Two versions of the album exist: the original "Stoppad" (Recalled) edition, which was only released on vinyl and cassette and the "Laglig" (Legal) edition, which got a CD release in 2002.

The album caused a minor controversy when track 12 of the Stoppad edition, "Heil Hitler", was played on a radio station. The track was intended to be an anti-war and anti-Nazi song, but its title could be misconstrued as endorsement of Nazism. As a result, CBS was ordered to have the album recalled and all unsold stock was pulled off Swedish shelves. The offending track was replaced with "Leader of the Rockers", a cover version of a track from Eddie's 1979 album "Eddie Meduza and the Roarin' Cadillacs".

In 2002, shortly after Eddie's death, his entire discography was released on CD. The CD version of West a Fool Away was based on the Laglig version. In 2010, it was rereleased with bonus tracks.
