Woman in the Moon is the debut studio album by American country music artist Chely Wright.
The album also included a cover of Bill Anderson's "Nobody But a Fool (Would Love You)",[4] which was a top ten hit for Connie Smith in 1966.
[4] Wright said that she was inspired by the songwriting of Bobby Braddock, particularly George Jones's "He Stopped Loving Her Today".
[7] When working with Shedd, Wright stated that she intentionally wanted to evoke "some of the production style from the '60s and '70s country music" and modernize it into "a jacked-up, '90s version of Connie Smith and Loretta Lynn.
[12] Jennifer Barr of The Tampa Tribune gave the album three out of four stars, comparing Wright's phrasing favorably to Loretta Lynn.
DeLuca praised "He's a Good Ole Boy" as "perfectly timely", and also spoke favorably of the Keith Whitley and Bill Anderson covers.
DeLuca also noted the unusual nature of Wright co-writing several tracks on the album and relying less on Nashville-based songwriters.
Of the songs written by Wright, he considered "Go On and Go" the strongest but called "Till I Was Loved by You" "perky" and "overbearing", and thought that "Sea of Cowboy Hats" was "a generic bid for the line-dance crowd".
