Looking for the Light is the third studio album by Hispanic-American country music artist Rick Trevino, released on February 7, 1995. Although its second single "Bobbie Ann Mason" was a Top Ten hit on the Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts in 1995, neither of the album's other singles — "Save This One for Me" or the title track — reached Top 40.
The album was also released in Spanish under the title Un Rayo de Luz ("A Ray of Light"), with Spanish-language versions of most of the songs on Looking for the Light. This version charted at #22 on the Top Latin Albums charts.
Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B, saying that Trevino "mixes cliche-ridden heartbreak songs with muscular two-step" and citing "Poor, Broke, Mixed-Up Mess of a Heart" and "Save This One for Me" as standouts.[2] Chris Dickinson gave a three-star review in New Country magazine, comparing Trevino's voice to George Strait's and citing the title track as a "truly vulnerable" performance, although he thought that Trevino sounded too young and forced on "Save This One for Me" and "Bobbie Ann Mason".[3]
