Where There's Smoke... is the debut studio album by American country music group Gibson/Miller Band. It was released in 1993 via Epic Records. The album includes five singles: "Big Heart", "High Rollin'", "Texas Tattoo", "Small Price", and "Stone Cold Country". Except for "Small Price", these all charted within Top 40 on Hot Country Songs between 1992 and 1994.
The track "Where There's Smoke" was later recorded by Archer/Park on their 1994 album We Got a Lot in Common, and was a No. 29 single for them in 1994.
Critical reception
A review from People was positive, stating that "Fueled by tongue-in-cheek lyrics...and Dave Gibson’s weathered tenor, their debut album conjures up freewheeling, fast-drinking honkytonk nights."
