Dottie West singles discography

The singles discography of Dottie West, an American country artist, consists of seventy one singles, one charting B-side, and one other charted song.

Upon signing her first major label contract with RCA Victor Records in 1963, Dottie West had her first Top 40 hit with "Let Me Off at the Corner" that same year. It was followed a year later by a duet with Jim Reeves titled "Love Is No Excuse", her first Top 10 single. The same year West released "Here Comes My Baby", which became her first top ten solo hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and became the first song by a female country artist to win a Grammy award. From her 1966 album, West had four major hits on the Billboard country chart including "Would You Hold It Against Me" (#5) and "What's Come Over My Baby" (#17). Over the next two years, she had major hits with "Paper Mansions", "Like a Fool", "Country Girl", and "Reno". Two years later, West collaborated with Don Gibson on the single "Rings of Gold", which reached #2 on the Billboard country singles chart and was followed by three more releases by the pair. In 1973, West's popular jingle used by The Coca-Cola Company entitled "Country Sunshine" was given clearance for a single release. It became West's biggest hit to date, reaching #2 on the Hot Country Singles chart and #49 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also nominated her for an eleventh Grammy award. After another top ten country hit with "Last Time I Saw Him" (1974), West's chart hits declined and she was dropped from RCA in 1976.

After moving to United Artists Records in 1976, West's first label release, "When It's Just You and Me", became a top twenty country hit. In 1978 she paired with Kenny Rogers on the song "Every Time Two Fools Collide", which became her first number one single. Their success helped revitalize West's musical career and won the pair the Country Music Association's Vocal Duo of the Year award in both 1978 and 1979. In the latter years, Rogers and West had three more top ten country hits with "Anyone Who Isn't Me Tonight" (#2), "All I Ever Need Is You" (#1), and "'Til I Can Make It on My Own" (#3). Their 1981 single, "What Are We Doin' in Love", went number one and became a #14 crossover hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The issue of her 1979 album spawned the release of the 1980 single "A Lesson in Leavin'", which became West's first number one solo hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. The album's additional singles ("You Pick Me Up and Put Me Down" and "Leavin's for Unbelievers") became top twenty country hits that year. Her next single from her 1981 album entitled "Are You Happy Baby" also went number one. After a top twenty hit with "It's High Time" in 1982 and successful duet with Kenny Rogers in 1984, West's singles began to peak outside the Billboard country top forty. The 1985 single, "We Know Better Now", became her final chat appearance, peaking at #53 on the Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.
