Spinning Around the Sun is an album by country music singer-songwriter Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

The album includes a duet with singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams, "Reunion."

In The Village Voice's annual Pazz & Jop critics' poll for the year's best albums, Spinning Around the Sun finished at number 7.

"[4] Mark Deming from AllMusic gave the record a 3.5-star rating, writing that "there are too many tunes that are beautiful but unremarkable, and beyond a near-definitive reworking of Butch Hancock's 'Just a Wave, Not the Water,' very little of this connects with the force of Gilmore's best work.

"[3] The Orlando Sentinel wrote that "Gilmore's synthesis of country, folk and rock 'n' roll is as effortless as ever, and his voice is its old sweet, nasal self.
