Feels So Right
Feels So Right is the fifth studio album by American country music band Alabama, released in February 1981 by RCA Nashville. It was their first #1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. On the all-genre Billboard 200 the album peaked at #16 and stayed for more than three years, longer than any other Alabama album. This was the last album to be co-produced by Larry McBride, who had discovered the band and later suffered a heart attack and died in 1991.
