I don't lose many words on introducing Reba. It would mean to pour water into the Mississippi River. 33 Number-1 Hits, more than 55 million albums sold - what more do you need to know. The Oklahoma native is also is extremely successful as an actress. Her comedy series Reba is what she's most known for. Then try to name the countless awards she has won or this current album Keep On Loving You which represents the first solo release to go Number-1 on the Billboard Top-200.

Reba’s current hit Strange is opening the CD. Despite decades of success, she has not lost one spark of energy. Tracks such as I Want A Cowboy or Pink Guitar show her vocal diversity and ability. There's a reason that this voice is one of the very few of today's female country artists that you can identify at the first lyrics. Of course, being from Oklahoma implies that there's a Western Swing track on the CD, too. Listen to I’ll Have What She’s Having rein.

In She’s Turning Fifty Today or I Keep On Lovin’ You Reba tells that kind of stories for which she is loved in many of her hits. Since her debut in 1977 this artist has lost nothing of her charisma or her spirits. She's getting more attractive and perfected with every year. Hopefully we can enjoy new albums from her every now and then for the next three decades as we did in the past three.
