Hum It is the thirtieth studio album by Ray Stevens, released in 1997 on the MCA Records label. It was his seventh album for MCA and was recorded at the Ray Stevens Sound Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. The album was arranged and produced by Ray Stevens. J.D. Sumner made a guest appearance as Mama on the track "Mama Sang Bass." Three singles were lifted from the album, "Mama Sang Bass," "Too Drunk to Fish," and "Virgil and the Moonshot," all of which failed to chart.
