Ridin' High (Margo Smith album)

Margo Smith recorded for the major label, Warner Bros. Records, during the 1970s. She had several major hits, including the number one country singles "Don't Break the Heart That Loves You" and "It Only Hurts for a Little While."[2] However, in 1982, Smith was released from her Warner Bros. contract.[3] After marrying businessman Richard Cammeron, the couple established the label Cammeron Records where they recorded the album Ridin' High.[4] The album was produced at the Columbia Recording Studio in Nashville, Tennessee. The sessions were produced by Richard Cammeron and Brian Fisher. A total of ten tracks were included on the album, five of which were composed by Smith herself.[1]

Ridin' High was released in 1981 on Cammeron Records. It was the ninth studio recording of Smith's music career. It was her first album to be released on an independent record label since her debut album in 1971 titled I'm a Lady.[1] It was originally issued as a vinyl LP, containing five tracks on both sides of the record.[5]

The project spawned three charting singles. The first single issued was "Either You're Married or You're Single." Released in March 1982, the song reached number 64 on the Billboard country songs chart. In July 1982, "Could It Be I Don't Belong Here Anymore" was issued as the album's second single and peaked at number 70 on the same chart. The final single spawned was the track "Wedding Bells." Issued in November 1983, the single peaked at number 78 on the country songs chart.[6]
