Reba McEntire Artist Snapshot:

As one of the best-selling female country artists of the 20th century, Reba McEntire purveyed a pop-flavored brand of country music that--by the mid '90s--propelled the singer out of the world of country and into the mainstream. McEntire has been featured on Broadway, appeared in numerous films, and written two books, and beginning in 2001 she became the star of her own successful sitcom, REBA. As a musical artist, however, it is her unmistakable voice and her talent for choosing just the right material that will always be her greatest assets.

Review

Stereo Review (11/90) - Performance "Glorious" / Sound "Very good" - "..a powerhouse recording that should put McEntire back on top where she belongs.."

Title Note

Personnel: Reba McEntire (vocals); Steve Gibson (guitar, mandolin); Dann Huff (electric guitar); Steve Fishell (steel guitar); Jon Jarvis, Matt Rollings (keyboards); Kirk Cappello (synthesizer); Michael Rhodes (bass); Edgar Meyer (arco bass); Larrie Londin (drums).

Despite the oddly Greta Garbo-like look Reba McEntire affects on the album cover, RUMOR HAS IT is a straightforward early '90s mainstream country album. In addition to a few co-written tunes, including the soaring opener and first single "Climb That Mountain High," and a handful of tunes from the Music Row songwriting factory, RUMOR HAS IT allows McEntire to cover a few obscure old favorites. Jesse Winchester's folky singer-songwriter gem "You Remember Me" is given a heartfelt reading, but the album's highlight is an absolutely fabulous reading of Bobbie Gentry's "Fancy"--a story song about a woman looking back on her dirt-poor upbringing and subsequent life as a high-class prostitute. The key to "Fancy" is that the narrator is proud of how her life has turned out, and McEntire sings the somewhat over-the-top lyrics with a mix of sly humor and flinty resolve that fits perfectly with the character. It's one of McEntire's most entertaining covers, and a highlight on a somewhat overlooked album.
