Look to Your Heart is Perry Como's 16th RCA Victor 12" long-play album.[1]

This album, released shortly after the previous Christmas LP, is one filled with tender ballads and soft standards. Sessions were recorded five months prior at Webster Hall studios in New York where several early Como albums were produced. A number of these selections were first introduced a year earlier on the 1967 NBC Perry Como Holiday Special. It included a recent single, (The) Father of Girls. Work by composers Johnny Mercer, Lerner and Loewe and Rodgers and Hart are highlights in this collection.

The album contained one hit single, "The Father of Girls." It reached #92 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and #10 Easy Listening in the winter of 1968, preceding the release of the LP.[2]
