"Woodsmoke and Oranges" is the debut album from Folk rock/Country rock musician Paul Siebel. The album contains his tune "Louise" which was recorded by Linda Ronstadt, Ian Matthews, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Andersen, Jerry Jeff Walker, Leo Kottke, and others.

All Music stated "Siebel and company crafted an incredible record that still sounds vibrant 30 years after the fact. Although he'd never outdo his work on "Woodsmoke and Oranges", few artists ever craft an album this good."

"Woodsmoke and Oranges" was re-issed on CD in 1995 by Philo.
