'''''Satin Sheets''''' is the second studio album released by American [country](/source/country_music) artist [Jeanne Pruett](/source/Jeanne_Pruett). The album was released in June 1973 on [MCA Records](/source/MCA_Records) and was produced by [Walter Haynes](/source/Walter_Haynes). The album contained Pruett's first major hit and signature song of the [same name as the album](/source/Satin_Sheets_(Jeanne_Pruett_song)). The single reached number one on the ''[Billboard](/source/Billboard_Magazine)'' Country Chart. The album was released in late spring 1973.

== Background and content ==
''Satin Sheets'' contained ten tracks of newly recorded material. The album was recorded in three separate sessions at [Bradley's Barn](/source/Bradley's_Barn) studio in [Mount Juliet, Tennessee](/source/Mount_Juliet%2C_Tennessee). The first session took place in December 1972, which recorded the title track and "Sweet Sweetheart". In January 1973, "Ive Been Wrong for So Long" and "Lonely Women Cryin" were recorded. The final songs were recorded in a session that took place in April 1973.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://countrydiscoghraphy2.blogspot.com/2017/02/jeanne-pruett.html|title=Jeanne Pruett's recording sessions|date=14 February 2017 |publisher=Prauguefrank's Country Music Discographies|accessdate=November 7, 2019}}</ref> Most of the songs on the album were aimed more towards a [traditional country](/source/Country_music) style, unlike the conventional [Nashville Sound](/source/Nashville_Sound) musical style used at the time on most country music sessions. This was seen particularly on songs such as the title track and "Walking Piece of Heaven". Many of the songs consisted of themes about passion and romance, including the title track, "Is Her Love Any Better Than Mine" and "Your Memory's Comin' On" in a [country pop](/source/country_pop) and [traditional country](/source/Country_music) style. The album was later reviewed by ''[Allmusic](/source/Allmusic)'' which gave it three out of five stars.<ref name="overview">{{cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/artist/jeanne-pruett-mn0000815386/discography|title=Jeanne Pruett Discography|website=[Allmusic](/source/Allmusic)|accessdate=November 7, 2019}}</ref>

''Satin Sheets'' was originally released as the lead and title track of an [LP record](/source/LP_record) which comprised 11 songs.
