Moonlighting: The Anthology is a compilation album released by English rock singer Roger Daltrey on 7 February 2005. The collection includes tracks from various projects throughout his career, such as stage and film appearances, as well as a good sampling of songs from his discography. It was released on the Sanctuary label in the UK and also included "A Second Out," a previously unreleased song written by Daltrey and Steve McEwan of the band UnAmerican.[1]

The album was reissued as Gold, with a slightly different track listing, as part of the album series of the same name, on 10 October 2006.[2]
