The script typeface used on this 1973 album cover is Laramie, a Headliners original designed by Robert Evans around 1960. It’s here used in a single large size, with several of its alternates and ligatures, see the differences in repeating letters like e b n. Read more about Laramie and how it relates to TF Saginaw and ITC Studio Script in the post about another album from the same year, Barry White’s I’ve Got So Much To Give.

I’m Gonna Be A Swinger is one of the later albums by country musician Webb Pierce (1921–1991). It was his final release with Decca Records, after 21 years with the label.
