This album is a great insperation to many and I know that it is to me. The song You Lie is a great one to relate to and also the Greatest Man I Never Knew. They have touched me and I know they will you too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, Excellent, Superb, Wonderful, Terrific!!!, March 18, 1999

Although this album could have had more songs on it (especially from the 1988 "Reba" album), this is a true Greatest Hits classic. With new songs such as "Does He Love You" and "They Asked About You", this package goes to show the new and upcoming country stars that Reba has been doing this since they were in diapers and she will continue to sing and outsell them for decades to come.

This review is from: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

While many of today's country (and for that matter, every other genre) performers crank out "Hits" packages with one or two number one tunes, Reba McEntire put out this disc with a slim ten tunes. With that said, however, all ten of these songs are legitimate hits. From "Rumor Has It" to "You Lie," McEntire does well with the song selection here.

What you get is a small sampling of ten of Reba's best tunes. Many of today's artists struggle to find enough "hits" to compile a hits package, but Reba has been around long enough to simply pull a few tunes from her catalogue and make a solid hits album worthy of purchase. She's in a small group of artists who can do such things. Other names in that list would include George Jones, Willie Nelson, George Strait, Merle Haggard, Alabama, and Dolly Parton. That's good company folks.

My personal favorite on this disc is "Fancy." The entire disc gives the listener a chance to listen to McEntire when she was beginning to loosen her country bindings and feel out other styles of music from blues to broadway. McEntire is savvy, and doesn't need to resort to controversy or pandering to prove just how great of an artist she is.

Purchase this album if you want some great country and pop country tunes. Long before Faith and Tim were considered a "dynamic duo" and the Dixie Chicks were singing Western swing at birthday parties, McEntire was establishing herself as one of the greatest female performers in country music. Also of note is the fact that she made her mark when the country genre was dominated by men.

Highly recommended.
