He'll Have to Go is a compilation album recorded by Jim Reeves and released in 1960 on the RCA Victor label (catalog no. LPM-2223).[1][2] The album included two No. 1 hits: "He'll Have to Go" and "Billy Bayou".[3]
Unlike other Jim Reeves albums, this was a compilation of previously issued non-LP singles and EP tracks. In 1962, RCA reissued this album in "electronic stereo" (RCA LSP-2223 (e)). All twelve songs, including the title track, were presented in "electronic stereo" even though "He'll Have To Go" was issued in true stereo on a 1960 single (RCA 61-7643, 1960), and true stereo masters existed for five other songs.
In Billboard magazine's annual poll of country and western disc jockeys, it was ranked No. 4 among the "Favorite C&W Albums" of 1960.[4]
