Gentle Is My Love

Gentle Is My Love is a 1965 studio album by Nancy Wilson. It spent 24 weeks on the Billboard Top 200, peaking at No. 17, and reached No. 7 on the Hot R&B LPs chart. The album contains a mixture of standards from the Great American Songbook and more recent popular material. In his AllMusic review, William Ruhlmann says that Gentle Is My Love is "a collection of romantic ballads that Wilson addresses with her characteristic emotionalism and precision. The arrangements are full of lush string parts, and the tempos are taken deliberately." Ruhlmann notes that Wilson covered several songs that were usually associated with men and performed as "soaring, heroic anthems," whereas she turns them into "more intimate, reflective ballads." A 1970 re-issue of the album was entitled Who Can I Turn To.
