"Blue Moves" is the eleventh studio album by British singer/songwriter Elton John, released in 1976. It was also his second double album, and his first album recorded by his own Rocket Records Ltd. While giving a concert at Wembley Arena to promote the album, he spontaneously announced "That's it, this is the last one." He didn't say for how long, but he was serious and temporarily left the scene.

Elton John has stated that "Blue Moves" is one of his favourite albums he has ever recorded. Fact|date=April 2008

An excerpt from "Out of the Blue" was used for the closing titles on Top Gear up until the mid 1990s.
