Ballads & Blues is a compilation album by Irish blues rock and hard rock guitarist Gary Moore from 1994. The album includes pieces of his more romantic work with ballads, which Moore has played since 1982 in his metal era and in his later blues -Area had written and published. It was therefore sometimes criticized as an inconsistently compiled work. It also contained some previously unreleased songs.
