Looking for the Light is the third studio album by Hispanic-American country music artist Rick Trevino,released on February 7,1995. Although its second single "Bobbie Ann Mason" was a Top Ten hit on the Hot Country Singles &Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts in 1995,neither of the album's other singles —"Save This One for Me" or the title track —reached Top 40.
The album was also released in Spanish under the title Un Rayo de Luz ("A Ray of Light"),with Spanish-language versions of most of the songs on Looking for the Light. This version charted at #22 on the Top Latin Albums charts.
Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B,saying that Trevino "mixes cliche-ridden heartbreak songs with muscular two-step" and citing "Poor,Broke,Mixed-Up Mess of a Heart" and "Save This One for Me" as standouts. [2] Chris Dickinson gave a three-star review in New Country magazine,comparing Trevino's voice to George Strait's and citing the title track as a "truly vulnerable" performance,although he thought that Trevino sounded too young and forced on "Save This One for Me" and "Bobbie Ann Mason".
