One Kiss for Old Times' Sake is Ronnie Dove's second album for Diamond Records.
History
The album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee and released on the strength of two hit singles, "A Little Bit of Heaven" and "One Kiss for Old Times’ Sake", both of which were Top 20 pop hits. In Canada, ""One Kiss for Old Times' Sake"" reached #3 on the CHUM Charts.
The initial Billboard magazine reviews stated that "The warm and sensitive vocal stylist offers an album of tender love ballads including his current hit single "A Little Bit of Heaven" and the recent "One Kiss for Old Times' Sake." His feel for country flavor is a remarkable one for the Baltimore-born balladeer." Adding that "...the arrangements of Bill Justis and Ray Stevens enhance the fresh vocal readings."Billboard magazine, July 3 1965: Album Reviews, page 68.
The album was reissued on CD in the mid 1990s, being paired with Dove’s I'll Make All Your Dreams Come True album. More recently, the album was reissued digitally by Ronnie Dove Music, with a few songs sourced from newly available tapes that were previously unavailable.
