New Horizons is the thirtieth solo studio album by American country singer Connie Smith.
The album was cut in a country pop production style that Smith felt pressured into.
Connie Smith has 18 top ten Billboard country singles at the RCA Victor label before moving to Columbia Records in the 1970s.
Among them was Andy Gibb's "I Just Want to Be Your Everything", Gogi Grant's "The Wayward Wind", Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life" and James Taylor's "Your Smiling Face".
[5][1] Original material penned by Dallas Frazier, Steve Collum and Dewayne Ordender was also part of the project.
[12][10] Although no official review was given of New Horizons, six of its tracks later appeared on Smith's 1993 compilation, Greatest Hits on Monument.
It has a state-of-the-art production that dates instantly, walks the line between crossover pop and country-pop rather clumsly, and lacks good material.
