Lulu's Album (US title It's Lulu) is an album by British pop singer Lulu, released in 1969. Despite promotion from her TV show, Lulu and recently winning the Eurovision Song Contest, this album failed to chart. Her biggest British solo hit, Eurovision winner "Boom Bang-a-Bang", was not included on the album despite recently hitting No.2 in the UK singles chart. The song that placed 3rd in the A Song for Europe heats, "Come September" was featured on the track list. It was her last album with producer Mickie Most, who had guided her career successfully through the late 1960s. Lulu's Album contained an array of cover versions from recent pop and rock hits, which was common practice for many female artists at this point. Following this, Lulu was to change musical style for the next few years to a more credible and mature approach.
Lulu's Album was issued in the US (Epic) the following year as It's Lulu and again in 1972 as The Most of Lulu Volume 2. It has since been released on compact disc.
