	Saddle The Wind Used - Vinyl - FC 44143 Sealed 1988 original with hype sticker. Released in 1984, Janie Fricke’s "Saddle the Wind" marked an important point in her career as she continued to solidify her status as one of country music’s leading female vocalists of the 1980s. She's sung with Loretta Lynn, Eddie Rabbit, Crystal Gayle, Ronnie Milsap. The album, produced by Bob Montgomery, came at a time when Fricke had already established a string of chart successes, and it showcased her ability to blend contemporary country sounds with traditional influences. "Saddle the Wind" featured a mix of both new material and covers, including renditions of country standards like "Always" and "Ridin' High," highlighting Fricke’s versatility and respect for the genre’s roots. The release followed Fricke’s successful albums that leaned into pop-country, but "Saddle the Wind" leaned more toward classic country stylings, reflecting a musical shift that resonated with audiences seeking a return to traditionalism in the genre. The album produced the Top 10 hit "Your Heart’s Not in It," which exemplified her emotive vocal style and continued radio appeal. This period was significant in Fricke’s career as it reinforced her position in country music during a time when the industry was experiencing stylistic transitions, and "Saddle the Wind" remains a notable entry in her discography for its blend of reverence for tradition and contemporary production values. more
