Tammy's Touch

Tammy Wynette was among country music's most popular artists during the sixties and seventies decades. She had a series of number one and top ten country songs, including 1969's "Stand by Your Man". Considered her signature recording, "Stand by Your Man" described how women stayed loyal to their husbands despite their many faults. The song elevated Wynette's popularity and helped craft an image that resonated for years on singles and albums. Among the follow-up singles were "I'll See Him Through" and "He Loves Me All the Way". Both songs followed a similar theme to "Stand by Your Man" and would help craft Wynette's 1970 studio LP, ''Tammy's Touch''. ==Recording and content==
