Free Music Notes for Reba #1'sFree Music Review: Go Reba!!! (but get another CD) Hit: 3 Stars
This is going to be a quick review. In short, this CD is a great sampling of the music of Reba McEntire. Lots of her best songs are on here, including the classics "Whoever's in New England", "Greatest Man I Never Knew", "Does he Love You", "Is There Life Out There", plus newer hits like "I'm a Survivor" and "Somebody". Every song on this compilation is gold. However, there is a MUCH better CD collection out there that you can get: "Reba's 50 Greatest Hits". With that compilation, you get almost all of these songs, plus a ton of Reba songs that were left out on this CD. There are SO many amazing Reba songs that were left out on this CD: her famous recording of "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia", and the fun "Why Haven't I Heard from You". The famous, moving song where Reba became one of the first singers (and the first country singer) to tackle the issue of AIDS, "She Thinks His Name was John." And, this CD leaves out "Fancy", Reba's signature song.
This is a good sampling of Reba's music, but if you come away from this CD a Reba fan (which you most likely will), you'll wish you'd have gotten a better deal with "50 Greatest Hits." For $10 more, you can get THE ultimate Reba CD. Then, add "Keep On Loving You", and you've got an awesome Reba collection!
Free Music Review: America's Sweetheart! Hit: 3 Stars
Who can rip out a song with all the high notes like Reba? No one compares. She is truly an American success story and America's Country Sweetheart!
I feel that all CD's are over-priced though and for that reason I give only three stars! Each individual can judge price for themselves.

Free Music Review: enough is enough...don't take your real fans for granted! Hit: 2 Stars
Reba:
I've adored you since I was 11 years old. I see you everytime you come to New York. I saw you on Broadway, I own 33 of your albums, some in CD AND record or tape form.
I am highly disappointed at yet another greatest hits album. Your real fans have been there through and through. Yet the new music we get is on an album which has songs that already appear on how many others?
The reality, is that this is Reba's sixth hits package. She had a Best of album in the early eighties, then greatest hits vols. 1, 2 and 3. She also had a hits package of her early music, Oklahoma Girl, and now this. I'm tired of it. Way way WAAAAY too many country musicians do this crap.
Enough is enough....albums like this take advantage and do nothing but disrespect your real fans.
The only reason I gave this two stars, is because the songs are no doubt great. Just an unfortunate compilation.
Free Music Review: WHO TOOK THE UGLY PHOTO COVER??? Hit: 2 Stars
I agree with the other reviewers here who say that we DID NOT NEED another Reba Greatest Hits Collection. The first half of the CD is fine. THe other half features Reba at her poppish, foppish worst. But Reba needs to sue her photographers. The woman is fifty years old and she's still trying to make herself look like she's twenty. She fails miserably. The cover photo of her looks like a wax mannequin reject! Reba (never a beauty) will win no beauty contests with the cover photo here and as for the music...well....you've heard it all before and I'm sure if you're a Reba fan you already have all the songs on this collection (save for the new singles...which are forgettable) so forget this collection. Advice to Reba: Get a new photographer!!
