Dynamic Duo (Loretta Lynn And Conway Twitty Album)
''Dynamic Duo'' is the seventh collaborative studio album by Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn. It was released on June 6, 1977, by MCA Records. Critical reception The June 18, 1977 issue of ''Billboard (magazine), Billboard'' featured a review which said, "Country music's red hot duo, Lynn and Twitty, have their summer offering — another tightly produced package that matches the personalities and voices of these two talents. An interesting assortment of songs ranges from the lively Hank Williams classic, "Hey, Good Lookin'" to their fast rising new single, "I Can't Love You Enough" to the old R&B hit, "Soulshake". A typical Owen Bradley Production of Twitty/Lynn relies heavily on steel guitar, solid bass beat, and the ever-present fiddles. For some recon, the cover photo of Twitty and Lynn is blurred. The music's sharp, though, and will have loads of airplay and sales." The review noted "I Can't Love You Enough", "We're Much Too Close", "Hey, Good Lookin'", "Where Old Love Gather ...
