Brenda, That's All is the seventh studio album by American singer Brenda Lee. The album was released October 15, 1962 on Decca Records and was produced by Owen Bradley. It was the second of two studio albums released in 1962 and included two Top 10 hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1962 and 1963.

Background and content

Brenda, That's All was recorded in separate recording sessions at the Bradley Film and Recording Studio in Nashville, Tennessee, United States under the direction of Owen Bradley.^{[citation needed]} The sessions began on March 8, 1962 and ended on August 9, 1962.^[1] Like her previous releases, the album contained twelve tracks of material and many of its tracks were cover versions of previously recorded material by other artists. It included cover versions of Marvin Rainwater's "Gonna Find Me a Bluebird", and Virgil F. Stewart's "Just Out of Reach". "Fool #1" was recorded by Loretta Lynn shortly before Lee's recording of the song. The album's tracks consisted of a variety of musical styles, including pop, R&B and country.^{[citation needed]} The album received three and a half stars from Allmusic. Reviewer Richie Unterberger commented that while the album was not a "scintillating record" it was "pretty good" because it did not over-emphasize pop standards, and that the whole album "is impressively sung and immaculately produced, in fact, in common with much of what Lee recorded under Owen Bradley's direction."^[2] The album was originally released as an LP record with six songs included on each side of the record.^[3] The album was later reissued on compact disc in the United Kingdom and was reissued on an extended play in Argentina.^[4]

The lead single released from the album was "You Can Depend on Me". Released in April 1961, the song became a Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #6 and also reached #25 on the Billboard R&B music chart.

The second track of the album entitled "Fool #1" was released as the second and final single from the album. Released in September 1961, the song reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her eighth Top 10 single,^[5] while peaking at #38 on the UK Singles Chart in the United Kingdom.^[6]
