Tammy Wynette - Sometimes When We Touch / Higher Ground

Tammy Wynette, known as the �First Lady of Country Music�, was one of music�s truly iconic figures. This much beloved entertainer who, during a twenty seven year recording career saw the release of 42 studio albums and charted 73 singles. �These two highly acclaimed albums from 1985 and 1987 saw Tammy rising to the challenge of meeting Country Music�s changing times with recordings that veered away from her own traditions. ��Sometimes When We Touch� marked such changes with one critic (Stereo Review Magazine) noting the album as �a radical departure but a natural progression�. Contains two chart singles, the title track performed as a duet with Mark Gray and �You Can Lead A Heart To Love (But You Can�t Make It Fall)�. The album brought together the talents of many top songwriters and Vince Gill and the Oak Ridge Boys are amongst those adding their voices as background singers. ��Higher Ground� brought together many of Country Music�s top stars contributing to Tammy�s vocals, with three tracks enjoying chart success, �Your Love� with Ricky Skaggs, �Talkin� To Myself Again� with The O�Kanes and �Beneath A Painted Sky� with Emmylou Harris. The album also included vocals by Vince Gill, Gene Watson, Vern Gosdin, The Gatlin Brothers, Rodney Crowell and Paul Overstreet. �Both albums produced by Steve Buckingham.
