Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as her debut studio album, 'Loretta Lynn Sings' immediately established her as a remarkably assertive, distinctively authentic voice in commercial country music. Propelled by her breakthrough hit 'Success', the record balances the slicker production techniques of early-60s Nashville with her undeniable, rural Kentucky twang. It laid the foundation for her reign as the pioneering 'Coal Miner's Daughter'.
