## Background, recording and content

Jeannie Seely became professionally-associated with Hank Cochran and he helped her sign a contract with Monument Records while also writing her 1966 single "Don't Touch Me". The song was Seely's first major commercial success and was followed by several more top 20 songs through 1968, including "I'll Love You More". The latter song became the name for Seely's third studio album. The studio project was recorded by produced Fred Foster at the Fred Foster Sound Studio in Nashville, Tennessee.
I'll Love You More was a collection of 11 tracks, whose themes centered on heartbreak. Six of the album's tracks were written by Cochran: the title track, "I'd Be Just as Lonely There", "When It's Over", "Your Way My Way", "A Little Unfair" and "You Changed Everything About Me But My Name". The latter was co-written with Seely. The album also features a cover of the track "If My Heart Had Windows" and Willie Nelson's "Mr. Record Man".
