Love's Ups & Downs is an album by American country singer, Barbara Mandrell, released in November 1977.

This was Mandrell's second album released in 1977. The previous album released two singles, one of which was a Top 5 hit. This album also released two singles. Both singles became Top 10 hits on the Billboard Country charts, the first time Mandrell had two solo Top 10 hits in a row. The first single, "Woman to Woman" peaked in the Top 5 and was a major hit that year. The song also marked the first time one of Mandrell's singles peaked inside the Billboard Hot 100, only peaking at #92. It also was the first time one of Mandrell's songs reached the Adult Contemporary charts, but again, it wasn't a major hit, only reaching the Top 50. The second single, "Tonight" was another Top 5 hit but did not chart on the Hot 100 or Adult Contemporary charts. The album as a whole was not majorly successful, only peaking at #29 on the Top Country Albums chart.

The album included cover versions of some songs, including a remake of Rita Coolidge's Pop hit from that year, "(Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher" and "How Long," originally recorded by Ace. The album also consisted of 10 tracks, some of which were new songs.

Barbara Ann Mandrell (born December 25, 1948) is an American country music singer. She is known for a series of Top 10 hits and TV shows in the 1970s and 1980s that helped her become one of country's most successful female vocalists of that period. She was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2009.

She was the first performer to win the Country Music Association's "Entertainer of the Year" award twice. She was the only female to do so until Taylor Swift equaled her. She also won twice the Country Music Association's "Female Vocalist of the Year" in 1979 and 1981.

Mandrell's first Billboard No. 1 hit was 1978's "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed", immediately followed by "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right" in early 1979. In 1980, "Years" also reached No. 1. She added one more chart topper in each of the next three years. "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" (her signature song), then "'Till You're Gone" and "One of a Kind, Pair of Fools"—all hit number one between 1981 and 1983, a period during which Mandrell also received numerous industry awards and accolades.


CONDITION Descriptions:

I base the condition of each of my Records off of Ebay's Grading System.


• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all.

• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.

• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.

• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing.

• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along.

• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.

Grading/Condition Definitions:  We are not experts by any means in anything we sell.  Most of our stuff is used unless otherwise noted.  That being said, grading or condition is a subjective matter.  I try to be conservative in my description and grading/condition details so that you get better than you expect, but as the saying goes, "You can't please ALL the people ALL the time!"  If you are super particular about condition either ASK A QUESTION BEFORE PURCHASE or move on to someone else (neither of us need the headaches).  Bottomline, I try to insure that what's listed is something I would want in my collection and of good/fair quality, otherwise, I wont sell it.  Ultimately, if you're not satisfied, see the return policy above!

Payment

PAYPAL is accepted. Payment is expected within 5 days of closed auction. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR PAYPAL ADDRESS IS CORRECT, that you are not using 2 different last names, or two different addresses. Please make sure your Ebay and Paypal addresses match. We do offer combined shipping for multiple lots, so IF YOU ARE PURCHASING MORE THAN ONE ITEM, PLEASE LET US KNOW ...and wait for us to send you an invoice with a combined total and a combined shipping total. DO NOT SEND 2 PAYMENTS...Paypal charges us a transaction fee on each payment you send, so only 1 payment for the combined items will be accepted. You are responsible for sending the correct amount, so pay close attention that you are sending the correct amount. Overpayments will not be refunded...it takes too long to recalculate, refund payments and start from square one.

Shipping

Buyer to pay shipping. I offer combined shipping. By default, I ship to the confirmed PAYPAL address (if thats how you pay) unless otherwise instructed. Actual shipping may vary from what item states, but we try to keep it as close as possible. It could be less or more, based on weight of item and distance it's gotta travel! I try my best to keep your shipping costs very reasonable! Combine multiple items for savings on shipping costs! PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL YOUR TOTAL IS GIVEN FOR MULTI-ITEM PURCHASES.

For international buyers, if I have not included a shipping charge in my item, please feel free to email us for an international shipping quote by using the Ask Seller Question feature. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS SHOULD WAIT FOR AN INVOICE AS SHIPPING CHARGES VARY PER COUNTRY AND SHIPPING MAY BE LESS THAN ACTUALLY LISTED ON EBAY!!!  International buyers, please understand that all customs forms will be filled out properly. Please also be advised that your package may be delayed thru customs and it is common for packages to take several weeks to arrive. Just because you received a package from a different ebay seller in no time flat, ours may not arrive as quickly....and this is not in our control. You are responsible for all fees associated with delivery and purchase of your item such as taxes and the such.
