History

In November 1957, Billboard magazine reported on its annual poll of country music disc jockeys. Singing Down the Lane ranked No. 10 among the "Favorite C&W Albums" of the preceding year.[4]

The liner notes on the album's back cover summed up the album: "There are no slow, strained moments in the long-playing tracks of this album. The title of the album was the keynote . . and the barometer was reading 'Spring' . . . and the handsome fellow from Texas was striding down the lane with an even dozen of his best vocals."[2]

Reeves' biographer Larry Jordan criticized the record company for the album's weak packaging—a black-and-white photograph of Reeves that had been "tinted a garish green" and that showed him "wearing a toupee that looked like some sort of an animal ready to leap off his head."[3] Jordan also criticized Reeves' "full bore" and unrestrained delivery on several tracks, lacking the subtlety and mellowness that marked his later RCA Victor recordings.[3]

The Juke Box Rebel ranked it No. 13 among the albums released in 1956.[5]
