Sailin' is the third studio album by Kim Carnes, released in 1976 (see 1976 in music). The record was recorded, in part, in Muscle Shoals, Alabama with the famed Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section. Although this album hasn't been released on CD, all of the album's songs can be found on the European CD "Kim Carnes - Master Series" released by A&M in 1999.
Background
Sailin' was recorded at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama, with producers Jerry Wexler and Barry Beckett. Carnes and Ellingson received the Professional Grand Prize at the American Song Festival and Best Composition at the Tokyo Song Festival for "Love Comes from the Most Unexpected Places" in 1976. Barbra Streisand later covered the song on her album Superman, released in the following year. Streisand had offered the song to film director Richard Brooks for the opening credits of Looking for Mr. Goodbar, but he declined.
Critical reception
Billboard described Sailin' as "an outstanding effort" from Carnes, showing "strength with lyrics and melodies" a voice that "reflects white gospel roots". Cashbox described "Let Your Love Come Easy" as having "good chorus hooks and snappy instrumentation".
