The discography of American country music singer-songwriter K. T. Oslin contains six studio albums, six compilation albums, one video album, seven music videos, 25 singles and six album appearances. Oslin signed a recording contract with Elektra Records in 1981. Both singles failed to become major hits. She then signed with RCA Records in 1987 and released the single " 80's Ladies." [1] The song became a top ten country hit, reaching number seven on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in July 1987. [2] Oslin's corresponding debut studio album of the same name reached number one on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and spent 148 weeks on the list. [3] It would also be her highest-charting album on the Billboard 200, peaking at number 68. [4] The album would sell one million copies and spawn the number one hits " Do Ya" and " I'll Always Come Back." Oslin's second album, This Woman was released in 1988 and was her second record to certify platinum in sales. [1] It was her second-highest charting album on the country chart, reaching number two in 1989. [5] Its second single, " Hold Me," topped the country songs chart in January 1989. [6] The album also spawned the top ten hits " Hey Bobby" and the title track. [1]
In 1990, Love in a Small Town became Oslin's third studio release. [1] It reached number five on the country albums list and spent 71 weeks charting. [7] It spawned Oslin's third number one hit, " Come Next Monday." Her career slowed down following the album, yet she did release 1993's Greatest Hits: Songs from an Aging Sex Bomb. In 1996, she returned with a new studio record titled "My Roots Are Showing...". [1] It reached a lower-end position on the Top Country Albums chart, peaking at number 45 after six weeks. [8] The album spawned two singles, including the charting single "Silver Tongue and Goldplated Lies." [9] In 2001, Live Close By, Visit Often became her fifth studio recording. [1] Its cover of " Come on-a My House," was her first (and only) single to chart on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs list. [10] In 2015, Oslin released her final studio effort, Simply. In December 2020, Oslin died after several years battling Parkinson's disease. [1]
