Love Is the Look You're Looking For
Summary
Love Is the Look You're Looking for is a compilation album by American country singer Connie Smith. It was released in February 1973 via RCA Victor and contained ten tracks. It was Smith's third compilation released by the RCA Victor label and mostly included previously-recorded material. The album was issued following Smith's exit from RCA's roster. It was named for its title track, which became a top ten single on the North American country singles charts. The album itself would chart on the American country LP's chart in 1973.
Connie Smith had been signed to the RCA Victor label since 1964. Beginning with her first single ("Once a Day"), Smith had a series of top ten and top 20 singles on the country charts during the 1960s and early 1970s. After discovering Christianity in 1968, Smith continued recording for RCA but became less interested in her career. Yet, she continued having top ten singles, including three in 1972. Among these 1972 top ten songs was "Love Is the Look You're Looking For", composed by Rose Lee Maphis. The song would eventually serve as the name to Smith's 1973 RCA compilation. By 1973, Smith had chosen to exit RCA's roster, finding that the label failed to give her the musical attention she previously received.
Instead of a full-length album, RCA compiled a series of previously-recorded songs from Smith's years at RCA The only new recording would be the title track. The album's sessions were held between April 1966 and January 1972 at the RCA Victor Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. The project featured production from Bob Ferguson, Smith's long-time producer. The compilation included ten tracks in total. Included on the album were two of Smith's top five country singles from the 1960s: "Ain't Had No Lovin'" and "Burning a Hole in My Mind". It also included the 1968 top 20 single, "Cry, Cry, Cry". The album also featured a French version of Smith's breakout single, "Once a Day". The French version was titled "Pas Souvent" was not previously released in the United States.
