All of the Big Hits Finally in One Collection,

This review is from: 50 Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
Finally, all of Reba's big hits from her MCA days are in one collection. This goes well beyond the Reba #1s that became available a few years ago. As a die-hard fan though, I already have all of these recordings, so I don't know if I will pick it up. The only problem with this set is that while it includes tracks from Reba's MCA recordings, it does not include any tracks from Reba's first MCA album, Just a Little Love. Both the title track, Just a Little Love, and He Broke Your Memory Last Night are two of Reba's most powerful recordings. I find it strange than neither appear here. Moreover, there are a few singles missing from the collection (such as On My Own and They Asked About You, among others), but the set is not a "singles" collection. Nevertheless, for the casual fan, this is the best Reba McEntire set to purchase because you will get all of the big hits in one collection (including many left off of the #1s).

I have loved Reba McEntire for a long time. Therefore I am biased that all the music on this set is great.
I was however not thrilled when I heard that once again we would be getting another "hits" collection. I had hoped for some previously unreleased material, but alas that was not included with this set. I also took issue with the packaging. The pictures did not look very appealing.
All that said, I feel that the pictures do not do the set justice. It is a pressed leather -- so the texture alone gives it character. The songs are all wonderful, although it would have been nice to get some of the Mercury recordings here as well.
I think the collection is solid. If you are a casual Reba fan, then this is definitely for you. It has all the greats all in one place -- from "How Blue" right up to "Because of You." It's the die-hard fans who have all the albums who will have more of a problem with the set. I bought it, and I'm glad I did...Read more

Reba is truly one of the best there is. Although this collection doesn't include anything from her Mercury days, it does include almost every major hit she has had on MCA. Reba is amazing!!!!!!!!! This collection has more selection of songs than her #1s CD had. I LOVE REBA!!!!!!!!!
