5.0 out of 5 stars
Yet another classic album, November 14, 2006
With the outstanding title track (a duet with Reba McEntire) and four other major country hits (How long gone, I can't get over you, South of Santa Fe and Husbands and wives), this was another huge success in the careers of Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn. Most of the songs here are originals, though Husbands and wives (one of the hits) is a cover of a Roger Miller song from the sixties, which was covered by the Everly Brothers on one of their country albums, Pass the chicken and listen. I wouldn't have envisaged it as a Brooks and Dunn song, but their performance is superb and it deserved to be a hit all over again. The album is wonderful mix of ballads and rocking country songs, with Ronnie singing lead on most songs. Kix sings lead on South of Santa Fe (one of the hits) and Way gone, both of which he co-wrote. Brand new whiskey, one of the rocking songs, is my favorite among the tracks not released as singles, but Born and raised in black and white, Your love don't take a backseat to nothing. Way gone, When love dies and You're my angel are all great too. All the hits can be found on their second volume of greatest hits so if you are only interested in hits, you may be content to buy that and ignore this - but if you want to go beyond the hits, this album is definitely wotrth listening to.

WOW! DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS?, January 27, 2000
By A Customer
One word describes Brooks & Dunn's album "If You See Her" : WOW! I mean, does country music get any better than this? I don't think so. I own three of their older albums, but "If You See Her" is the best of the bunch. The best songs on the album are South of Santa Fe, Born and Raised in Black And White, and If You See Him/If You See Her. The rest of the songs are spectacular also. Yes, it's true that Ronnie has the stronger voice of the two, but Kix is also a very talented singer and his voice is just rights for slower songs, such as South of Santa Fe. I enjoy hearing them sing together. I recommend this album to any country music fan. You won't be disappointed.
