My favorite of all the songs here is Small two-bedroom starter, a song that tells the sad story of a house that is owned by a succession of couples each of whom has to sell and move on. It is a classic country song of the type you either love or hate.

Reba recorded many fine albums in the eighties that are well worth seeking out and this is one of them, but if you are unfamiliar with Reba's Mercury recordings, I suggest you begin with Oklahoma girl, a double CD that contains many of her classic songs from this period, which I've already reviewed.
