True Love is a studio album by the American country musician Don Williams.[1] It was released on August 7, 1990, via RCA Records. The album includes the singles "Back in My Younger Days", "True Love" and "Lord Have Mercy on a Country Boy".
The album was coproduced by Williams and Garth Fundis.[2] "Just 'Cause I'm in Love with You" is a cover of the Jesse Winchester song.[3]
The Province wrote that "Williams's classic unadorned signature ... is lukewarm on True Love."[4] The Chicago Tribune deemed the album an "unusually rhythmic collection," writing that Williams's voice "remains as warm as a favorite memory." The Buffalo News opined that "nobody sings about the average lives of average Americans with more poignancy than Don Williams."[5] The Orange County Register noted that "Lord, Have Mercy on a Country Boy" "may be the least preachy and most elegant song yet about the devastation to our environment."[6]
