Singin' with Feelin'

Singin' with Feelin' is the tenth solo studio album by American country music singer-songwriter Loretta Lynn. It was released on October 9, 1967, by Decca Records.

Critical reception
Billboard published a review in the issue dated October 28, 1967, which said, "Three extremely well-performed tunes are on this album—but one is so far above the rest that it glows. It's solid, traditional in aspect, soulful in delivery—"I'll Sure Come a Long Way Down". Her other two outstanding songs are pop in nature, "Dark Moon" and "Secret Love", though "Dark Moon" is a country-originated effort."

The review published in the October 21, 1967 issue of Cashbox said, "Hordes and hordes of country fans have massed to secure for Loretta Lynn the position of No. 1 female vocalist, a role which she has enjoyed for several years now, and which she shows little signs of relinquishing. One of the reasons for her immense popularity has been the sincerity and feeling which flavor her vocal efforts, and this LP contains a generous sampling of that feeling,with standout tracks in "Dark Moon", "A Place to Hide And Cry", and her recent smash single, "If You’re Not Gone Too Long"."

Commercial performance
The album peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot Country Albums chart.

The album's only single, "If You're Not Gone Too Long", was released in April 1967 and peaked at No. 7 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart.
