The album 'You're Lookin' at Country' was released in 1971 by Decca Records, produced by Owen Bradley. It marks a turning point in Loretta Lynn's career, solidifying her image as an authentic country artist close to her rural roots.
The title track, 'You're Lookin' at Country', became a number one hit on the Billboard country charts and is considered one of Lynn's signature songs. The album also includes covers of songs by other artists, such as 'The Days of Sand and Shovels'.
