On this 1996 outing, Keith, backed by his Easy Money Band, offers up a largely romantic set. "Me Too" finds him calling in sick to work just so he can stay home with his lady, while "A Woman's Touch" features the singer pondering matters of the heart over gently twinkling keyboards, and "Does That Blue Moon Ever Shine on You" stands out as a particularly tender, if not schmaltzy, ballad. In fact, aside from the upbeat tunes "She's Gonna Get It" and "Hello," the record is a notably down-tempo affair that calls attention to Keith's resonant vocals. A far cry from his rowdy, hard-drinking later albums, UNLEASHED and SHOCK'N Y'ALL, BLUE MOON showcases the sensitive side of Keith to charming effect.
