Let Me Love You A Little (So I Can Love You A Lot) / She Should Save Some Loving (For A Rainy Day)

Released in 1966 on the Hickory Records label, this single features the country-pop singer Jimmy Elledge, who was best known for his 1962 hit 'Funny How Time Slips Away.' This specific release reflects the Nashville sound of the mid-1960s, a period where production values in country music leaned toward polished arrangements and crossover appeal to reach a broader radio audience.

The record represents the effort of Hickory Records to maintain a stable of artists who could balance traditional country sensibilities with the sophisticated pop-inflected production styles that dominated the airwaves at the time. While Elledge was a seasoned performer with a distinctive vocal style, this release remains a deep-cut example of the era's regional label output, valued by collectors today for its place within the session-heavy, professionalized landscape of 1960s Nashville music production.
