Album Notes & Community Reviews

Returning to her deep rural roots, Loretta Lynn presents a collection of traditional spirituals and Christian standards on 'Hymns'. The straightforward, unadorned production allows her crystalline, emotionally direct vocals to convey profound religious conviction. The album serves as a poignant, deeply personal reflection of the faith that underpinned much of her legendary songwriting.
