Midnight Angel


Midnight Angel is the sixth studio album by American country music singer, Barbara Mandrell, released in October 1976.
Like Barbara's previous album, Midnight Angel was not as successful as future releases. However, the album set the stage for her future recordings under the label. Only one single was released, "Midnight Angel", which peaked at #16 on the Top Country Singles chart. The album also peaked at #24 on the Top Country Albums chart. With her second album under ABC/Dot, the subject matter of her songs got sexier, as exemplified in "Pillow Pleasure", "Slippin' Around Again", and the pop-tinged "I Never Said I Love You." The album's closing track, "Married But Not to Each Other", was later released as a single after its inclusion on Lovers, Friends, & Strangers the next year. Like Barbara's previous album, This Is Barbara Mandrell, Midnight Angel, also consisted of 11 tracks.
