Let the Whole World Sing It with Me is a studio album by American country artist Wynn Stewart. His band, The Tourists, received equal credit on the billing as well. It was released in March 1969 via Capitol Records and was produced by Ken Nelson. It was Stewart's sixth studio album in his music career and spawned a total of three singles. Two of these singles became hits on the Billboard country chart.




Background and content


Let the Whole World Sing It with Me was recorded between 1968 and 1969 at the Capitol Recording Studio, located in Hollywood, California. Like his previous Capitol releases, the record was produced by Ken Nelson. Nelson had been Stewart's long time producer at the label. The album contained a total of 11 tracks, unlike his previous releases, which contained 12. Four of the album's songs were written (or co-written) by Stewart. This included the single, "Strings," and a re-recording of a former single, "The Keeper of the Key." The latter had been co-written with Harlan Howard. Another re-recording is Stewart's hit "Wishful Thinking." The album's title track had been written by Dale Noe. It was Noe who had previously written many of Stewart's Capitol hits, including hits on his last release. This also includes his number single from 1967, "It's Such a Pretty World Today."
