1967

From the back cover: As an entertainer, Dottie West never ceases to amaze people. She performs with all the finesse of a polished pro, and yet, there'a a simplicity about her that makes her performance down-to-earth and real. She radiates warmth and a genuine friendliness. By the end of her show you feel like you know her personally, and you do! That's just the way she is all the time.

Dottie should not be overlooked as a songwriter either, for she holds her place with the best of them. She and her steel-playing husband Bill composed her first bit hit, Here Comes My Baby, which helped her win a Grammy Award for the Best Female Performance in Country Music for the year 1964! Among her friends and fellow artists, Dottie is regarded as one of the truly "great people" in our business, as well as one of the truly great talents.

At home she plays the role of wife and mother of four children with such proficiency it's hard to imagine that she has any career other than being a housewife. (Just between you and me, I'm pretty sure there are more than twenty-four hours in her day.) – Jennie Seely, Monument Records
