Rock and Roll Lullaby is the ninth studio album by American country music artist Jessi Colter, released in 1984 by Triad Records, her first and only release for the label.

Contents

This release ended up being her last album of new material for 12 years - it was followed in 1996 by an album of children's songs - and her last album of new country recordings for 22 years.

Background

Colter's first album since 1981's Ridin' Shotgun, it was also her first album since her departure from Capitol Records. The release consisted of ten tracks, which included both new tracks and cover versions of other songs, including covers of The Davis Sisters's "I Forgot More Than You'll Ever Know," Lena Horne's "Stormy Weather," and Don Gibson's "I Can't Stop Loving You." The album spawned one single, "I Want to Be with You," which failed to chart the Hot Country Singles chart upon its release. In addition, Rock and Roll Lullaby did not chart among the Top Country Albums list.

The effort was reviewed by Allmusic and was only given two out of five stars.
