"Blue" is the title of a 1993 album by guitarist Phil Keaggy, released on Epic Records. "Blue" was released in the mainstream market simultaneously with Keaggy's album, "Crimson and Blue", which was geared to the Christian market. The most significant differences are the inclusion of three different songs (Keaggy's cover of the Badfinger song, "Baby Blue"; "All Our Wishes"; and "The Further Adventures of..." from the "Revelator" EP) and the exclusion of five songs from "Crimson and Blue" ("Love Divine," "Reunion Of Friends," "Stone Eyes," "I Will Be There," and "Nothing But The Blood.") In addition, several of the tracks on "Blue" are reworked.
