If We Put Our Heads Together is the third and final collaborative studio album by American country music artists Ernest Tubb and Loretta Lynn. It was released on June 9, 1969, by Decca Records.[1]
The review published in the June 21, 1969 issue of Billboard said, "This is must merchandise for the dealer. Devotees of country music will find it very difficult to lay this package down inasmuch as the combined sales power of Ernest Tubb and Loretta Lynn is tremendous. They do some great duets, including the hit single, "Who's Gonna Take the Garbage Out" and "Let's Wait a Little Longer", "That Odd Couple" and others."[3]
Cashbox published a review in the June 28 issue which said, "The dynamic duo of Ernest Tubb and Loretta Lynn return for their third LP which spotlights the twosome performing their latest chart rising single in addition to other fine ballad and up tempo delights. Included, besides the title track, are "Who's Gonna Take the Garbage Out?", "Holding on to Nothing", "Chased You Till You Caught Me", "Let the World Keep on a Turnin'", "That Odd Couple" and five more. Fine set."[4]
The first single from the album, "Who's Gonna Take the Garbage Out?", was released in May 1969[5] and peaked at No. 18 on the US BillboardHot Country Singles chart. The second single, "If We Put Our Heads Together (Our Hearts Will Tell Us What to Do)", was released in September 1969[6] and did not chart.
