Loretta Lynn - Whispering Sea (Live in Studio)


It really surprised me, when my girl picked up Loretta Lynn's latest album, Full Circle. Of course I was perusing trying to find a George Jones CD...when I showed her Loretta's latest. She remarked that she really likes the song Loretta did with Wille...Lay Me Down.

Come to find out Johnny Cash's son, John Carter Cash and Loretta's daughter, Patsy Lynn Russell produced this album. They have been working on a series of releases for the past several years, this being the first of many. Whispering Sea is the very first song that Loretta ever wrote.

Also, included is some "mountain songs" which she learned from her mother, but had never recorded.

Her voice is still very strong and full of emotion. If one doesn't like "twang" this is not the one to choose.....but that makes it Loretta Lynn in my opinion.

I haven't got to the female artists on this blog up until now.....what better way to start than with who I feel to be the Queen of Country Music....Tammy may have been the first lady....but Loretta is the Queen!
