This album was not released in the UK but that didn't stop BBC national radio giving this album plenty of airplay. I was impressed and have been a Reba fan ever since. This remains one of my favorite Reba albums, though she has recorded many great ones.
On reflection, it is easy to understand the BBC's enthusiasm – the album is full of radio-friendly tracks any one of which could have been a single. In America, the two singles were You lift me up to heaven and I can see forever in your eyes, both very successful on the country charts.
There are three covers here – A poor man's roses (previously recorded by Patsy Cline, though I'm not sure if she was the original artist), Tears on my pillow (Little Anthony and the Imperials) and Suddenly there's a valley (an American hit for both Gogi Grant and Jo Stafford, also a UK hit for both Petula Clark and Jo Stafford).
The remaining original songs – I don't think love ought to be that way, Long distance lover, If I had it my way, My turn and Look at the one who's been looking at you – are all of a high quality.
Most of these tracks can be found on the double-CD Oklahoma girl, which I've already reviewed. If you only want a sample of Reba's early work on Mercury, you might consider that compilation. However, this album is well worth the effort tracking it down.

IF I HAD TO PICK A FAVORITE REBA ALBUM THIS WOULD BE IT!
6 Oct 2005
Format:Audio CD
This is my favorite Reba album of all the ones she's done. It is the one I keep going back to and listening over and over. The songs are beautiful and Ms. McEntire sings her heart out without going over!!

I JUST FINISHED LISTENING TO THIS AND....
30 Sep 2005
Format:Audio CD
It is absolutely phenomenal. This is Classic Reba at her very, very best. "Suddenly There's a Valley" will give you chills and is by far the best thing on here...but all the songs are excellent!! Reba should record a gospel CD with this type of arrangement....clean, beautiful and not adorned with loud electric guitars, synthesizers, percussion or background vocals that drown her beautiful voice out. This one is becoming a rarity so snatch it up if you can. This one is worth a mint!

You may FEEL THE FIRE, but it doesn't ignite
8 July 1999
Format:Audio CD
Reba's career has spanned more than two decades, and as you listem to her albums, one can hear the changing times, and the changing woman. Not quite a diva, Reba shows a lot of growth and potential in one of her best EARLY works. This album features her 1st Top Ten single, "You Lift Me Up To Heaven," as well as some stellar songwriting. The stand-out tracks are "If I Had It My Way" and "My Turn" If you like Reba, you'll like this album, if you're looking for hits...look elsewhere.
