"Sailin'" is the 3rd studio album by Kim Carnes, released in 1976. "Sailin'" further mined the soft contemporary rock sound heard on "Kim Carnes" (1975) and that would continue throughout the Seventies. Jerry Wexler produced, with some sessions taking place at Muscle Shoals in Alabama and featuring that studio’s famous in-house rhythm section. Again, most songs were Carnes or Carnes-Ellingson originals, bolstered by two covers, Gerry Goffin and Barry Goldberg's "It’s Not The Spotlight" and Van Morrison's "Warm Love". There were no hit singles, but the closing track, "Love Comes From Unexpected Places", was a leading prize winner at two major song festivals (The American Song Festival and The Tokyo Song Festival) and was covered the following year by Barbra Streisand on her hugely successful "Superman" album, bringing Kim’s work to a much wider audience.
