Moonlighting is the debut album by the contemporary jazz ensemble the Rippingtons. It was released in 1986 on Passport Jazz and GRP labels, and reached number 5 on Billboard's Jazz chart.
It was released initially in Japan by Alfa Moon with its subsidiary label The Baked Potato as Moon Riding, using the alias for The Rippingtons called Cruise Control.
This is also the first appearance of the Jazz Cat on the album cover by artist Bill Mayer. The Jazz Cat has since been on the cover of every Rippingtons album.
