Moving Target is a studio album by American spoken-word poet and blues musician Gil Scott-Heron.

The album, released on Arista in 1982, was to be his last for more than a decade.

On Moving Target, Scott-Heron and his "Midnight Band" recorded their "typical, tastefully jazzy R&B and funk grooves", though flavored with "more exotic sounds" and influenced by reggae (there are echoes of Bob Marley in some songs).

The final song, the almost ten-minute long "Black History/The World", is in part a spoken-word performance by Scott-Heron ending with a "plea for peace and world change".
