I Prefer the Moonlight is the sixteenth studio album by country superstar Kenny Rogers. It did respectably well for his current status in the industry to date, placing #18 on the charts.[1] Though the album only reached #163 in the Billboard 200, the success in the country market was enough for it to go gold. It contained three top five hit singles: the title cut and the grammy-winning duet with Ronnie Milsap, "Make No Mistake, She's Mine" and "The Factory". The album was Rogers' last studio album for RCA Nashville.
