This was it folks!! After this offering, Reba compromised what took her to the top and won her the CMA female vocalist of the year award four times, something she never did again. This CD is not as good as "My Kind of Country" or "Have I Got a Deal for You" but certainly is better than ANYTHING she did afterward with the exception of "For My Broken Heart". No one can top McEntire when it comes to singing traditional country music and the tunes here reflect that statement. Beginning with the haunting title track she never misses a beat!! The production values are splendid on this CD as well with Reba not overdoing her "trademark triple and quadruple syllable phrasing". Also excellent cuts are "Just Across the Rio Grande", "What You Gonna Do About Me" and "I Don't Want to Mention Any Names". "The Girl Who Has Everything", "Someone Else" "I Don't Want to Be Alone" and "I've Still Got the Love We Made" are very good as well. The highlight of the CD is the song "The Stairs", Reba's homage to the battered woman afraid to leave her husband. This track is superb and should have been released as a single!!! This song alone is worth the entire CD!! The only discordant note in this CD and the one that prevents me from giving this CD a five star rating is the inclusion of "Love Will Find Its Way to You". Not that it isn't a good song, it is and Reba is in fine form in it. But it is like a fish out of water amongst the rest of the traditional sounding tunes. "Love Will Find...." is Reba's first entry into the foray of "Bubblegum Pop" which, sadly, doesn't distinguish her from anyone else. The song would have been more appropriate on any of the other CDs she released after this one because it would fit in with her decision to "do what sells". I can't believe its been almost 20 years since this CD was released and since Reba has done a project of entirely "traditional country" replete with steel, fiddles and soaring vocals. I keep praying she'll come "home" again someday, but, I don't think it will ever happen. So I'll just have to be content to listen to everything she put out until 1987, with the exception of course of "For My Broken Heart" which I consider a masterpiece.
