How Glad I Am (album)

How Glad I Am is a 1964 studio album by Nancy Wilson. It was one of her most successful albums, reaching #4 on the Billboard 200 and remaining on the chart for 31 weeks. The title track became her highest-charting single, peaking at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, and earned her a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance. The album also included two bossa nova songs by Antônio Carlos Jobim; two selections from the musical Funny Girl, which had recently opened its hit run on Broadway; a pair of tunes by Howlett Smith and Spence Maxwell; and a soul jazz number composed by Wes Montgomery, along with other material.

In a review of the 2009 re-issued version, Nick Dedina at AllMusic hailed the title track as "a tart, country-flavored soul number [that] remains a favorite of the British Northern soul scene." He also said, "the juicy, Hammond B-3-filled 'West Coast Blues' is the set's best number."
