Silver Moon was the third single Michael Nesmith recorded as a solo artist and the second to reach the Billboard Hot 100. Silver Moon was released in 1970 from Nesmith's second solo album, Loose Salute. Nesmith recorded the song with The First National Band and the song reached 42 on the Top 100 and #7 on the Adult Contemporary charts. The track features a pedal steel guitar solo played by O.J. "Red" Rhodes. The song also went to No. 13 in Canada.
Although Nesmith would release several singles following "Silver Moon", "Silver Moon" would remain his last song to reach a notable status on the charts. On the B-side of "Silver Moon", the track "Lady of the Valley" appears.
Similar to Nesmith's earlier single, "Joanne", Nesmith would include "Silver Moon" on his regular set of solo concert tours and has appeared on both of his live albums, Live At The Palais and Live at the Britt Festival.
