5.0 out of 5 stars Lorrie at her best, December 22, 2000

From the opening ballad "Autumn's not that cold", right through to the closing ballad "Faithfully", this album is a winner. Her voice ranges from complete vulnerability to in-your-face attitude. "Something in Red" is a touching waltz that was a big hit, as was "Except for Monday". She also does a fantastic cover of the old classic "Tears on my pillow". This album is Lorrie at her best...highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A typical eclectic mix from Lorrie, April 27, 2005

To me, this album has always lived in the shadows of the one before (Leave a light on) and the one after (Watch me), which are my two favorite albums of Lorrie's. Nevertheless, there are many excellent songs on this collection too - it's not far behind the other two in its overall quality.
The album starts with the wonderful ballad Autumn's not that cold, which was surely considered for a possible single release. It wasn't but the next four songs here (We both walk, Something in red, Except for Monday, A picture of me without you - a cover of a George Jones classic) were all major country hits. You've probably heard some of them if you're thinking of buying this album now. All four have appeared on various Lorrie Morgan compilations although I don't think they have all appeared together anywhere except on this original album.

After the four tracks released as singles, there's a fine cover of Tears on my pillow, originally recorded by Little Anthony and the Imperials who had a major American hit with it. Their version didn't chart (and may not have been released) in the UK, but Kylie Minogue eventually took the song into the UK top ten. During the seventies, reggae singer Johnny Nash topped the UK charts with a song titled Tears on my pillow, but that was a completely different song.

Best woman wins, a duet with Dolly Parton, comes next. This track also appeared on Dolly's album, Eagle when she flies. It is a fun song about two women fighting over a man, although most of the singing is done by Dolly. Three more fine songs (In tears, Hand over your heart, Faithfully) complete an excellent album.

This is a highly entertaining album from Lorrie - not quite her best, but well worth a listen.
