"Let Your Love Flow" is the title of a pop song written by Larry E. Williams which was recorded in the autumn of 1975 by country music duo the Bellamy Brothers for whom it afforded an international hit in 1976.

The song's composer Larry E. Williams had been a roadie for Neil Diamond's live shows and "Let Your Love Flow" had been published by Bicycle Music who owned Diamond's own catalog having been founded by the singer - on Diamond's apparent disinterest in recording the song himself Howard Bellamy of the Bellamy Brothers has commented "it really wasn't in his [ie. Diamond's] vein" - and according to Howard, Johnny Rivers had also passed on "Let Your Love Flow". The song as recorded by Gene Cotton was a single release in the autumn of 1975 making Cotton's version - featured on his 1976 album release For All the Young Writers - the earliest released version of "Let Your Love Flow" although it is unclear if Cotton's recording of song was made prior to that by the Bellamy Brothers.

The Bellamy Brothers - siblings David and Howard Bellamy from Pasco County- had been working as session musicians at the Studio 70 recording studio in Tampa when a demo of a song written by David: "Spiders and Snakes", was optioned for Jim Stafford whose 1973 recording became a million-selling hit single. On the recommendation of Stafford's producer Phil Gernhard the Bellamy Brothers relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a recording career: the duo initially stayed with Jim Stafford in the Hollywood house whose purchase Stafford's success with "Spiders and Snakes" had made possible and for a time Howard acted as Stafford's road manager while Gernhard arranged for David to record as a solo act for the Warner Bros Records affiliate Curb Records with a resultant regional hit: "Nothin' Heavy", #77 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the autumn of 1975.

David Bellamy's recording sessions featured members of Neil Diamond's band including drummer Dennis St John, and it was St John who recommended "Let Your Love Flow" to the Bellamys. Howard Bellamy recalls that Dennis St John "one day...came over to our house and brought the demo of 'Let Your Love Flow' and said: 'Hey, this sounds like something you guys would do.'" David Bellamy recalls St John mentioning the song as appropriate for the Bellamys to record, but that St John sent the demo of the song to Phil Gernhard: David Bellamy (quote) - "the next day I went to Phil's office and listened to it. I [then] called Howard and said :'I’ve got to play you this song!'" David further states: "We went back in with Neil's band" - to the Wally Heider Recording Studio in Hollywood - "and cut the song. We got the right key, the band hooked it right away and we probably didn’t do more than two or three takes on the whole session. It was the perfect song for us and became the key to our career."
