 Evolution of a Woman Nov 09, 2010
By Rudy Palma
"The Writing Fiend"
"All the Women I Am" is a classy concept album that builds on the surprise success of 2009's "Keep on Loving You." There is no foreseeable break in Reba McEntire's seemingly indefatigable streak.
It is not the strongest collection of songs she has wrapped her voice around, but her energy flows like liquor from an open bar, making even lesser tracks highly listenable. The songs flow in and out of each other in a fashion suggesting different facets of womanhood, keeping the theme of the album in a way that sounds free and easy.
"Turn On the Radio" is conspicuously contemporary in sound, starting off with a blaring guitar riff and cooing background vocals - and Twitter and texting are mentioned in a syllable-bursting few lines clearly intended to show Reba is hip and current. However, results are what count, and she pumps the song with infectious joie de vivre. She is up to the task, and radio programmers seem to agree - it is her sixtieth Top 10 country hit.
Her cover of BC Jean's "If I Were a Boy" (popularized by Beyonce) is a knock-out-the-ballpark success. She imbues the song with a torrent of invested, genuine emotion that reaffirms Reba to be a titan among singers, irrespective of gender or genre. Beyonce's version sounds tepid and uninspired by comparison.
The profoundly touching "When You Have a Child," a lilting, graceful, bittersweet ballad, has the same power. The song is deliberately heart-tugging, almost shamelessly, but its sentiments ring true.
"And year after years pictures fill page after page," she sings. "They never really grow up - still your baby at any age. The first time you hold `em it's like you see God's smile."
The intriguing, highly inspired "Somebody's Chelsea" and "Cry" also fall into the ballad category, but the swashbuckling uptempos call the most attention to themselves. "The Bridge You Burn," for instance, celebrates moving on after a false start to a relationship with a rousing, rocking chorus. The song strongly suits Reba's abilities.
The strutting, engagingly unpretentious title track has the same charm. The lyrics have some cliches and odd metaphors, but Reba's performance makes that difficult to detect.
"I need a man who can handle all the women I am," she sings with fine-tuned confidence.
It is tempting to compare a veteran performer like Reba McEntire to young up-and-comers or, even less fairly, to her younger self, but to do so not only ignores the way the artist evolves but, in the case of this particular album, how a woman evolves.
Sure, a 25-year-old might have an advantage over Reba at a photo shoot, but when it comes time to sing this diverse an array of songs with robustness and sincerity someone so young could not bring the same emotion and experience to the table - to say nothing of the pipes.
A good song and a good singer is a winning formula, and "All the Women I Am" is a fine example.

 The Queen of Country did not disappoint.... Nov 09, 2010
By Ty
Her previous album, Keep On Loving You, was a solid album (very good cd) but there were a couple of songs on which I felt she should've passed. However, this album I lovee EVERY track!!! She seems to exude more soul on this album!! She exemplifies how to blend soul and the heart of country. She leaves no wonder why is she called the Queen of Country. They did very well to release Turn On The Radio as the lead single. Also, I was floored when heard Reba's cover (live) of Beyonce's If I Were a Boy. Reba certainly made the song her own. Although, in a recent interview about recording the song she didn't seem too enthusiastic about the song. ? It's easy to see when Reba loves a song. For instance, she loves Cry--and you will, too. I could analyze every song but given that I JUST NOW listened to each song--I'm still reeling in the exceptional talent that Reba put on this album!!! You will love this album....

She's still got it! Apr 28, 2011
By Kurt A. Johnson
This is the twenty-sixth(!) studio album of Country Music Hall of Famer and indeed Country Music legend, Reba McEntire. What can I say? She's still got it!
The album is very good, quite captivating, with a great series of sounds. Each of the songs speaks of a strong woman, who knows who she is and where she's going. I must admit that I did not like, "If I Were A Boy," and always skip over that track, but other than that, the album is pure gold. If you like good Country Music, REALLY GOOD Country Music, then get this album!

Great Album Apr 15, 2011
By Kristin Aiello
I have been a Reba Fan for a while and I was glad to get this CD. She always does great on the vocals, and she does amazing with the song, "If I Were A Boy." I would recommend this Cd for any Reba fan that hasn't purchased it yet.

Forever the Queen of Country Music Dec 13, 2010
By Hilary
"Play on!"
I loved "Keep On Lovin' You", and I thought she could not do better than that, espcially after all these years, and the not-eye-opening "Turn On The Radio". Don't get me wrong, I love TOTR, and it's so Carrie Underwood-ish, and I love Carrie. It's just, it's not representative enough to show how good the album is!
Stand-out's:
"Turn On The Radio": Great great track, boy-trashing type. It's sad that it had such a monogeneous video.
"If I Were A Boy": Loved the Beyonce's rendition (I bought "I Am...Sasha Fierce" too) an this iseven better. Sure Reba is not powerhouse like Bey, but Reba makes the song herself.
"The Bridge You Burn": Fan-favorite. It's so great, another boy-trashing song. Love the fiddle!
"All The Women I Am": Lyrically nothing really special but it's still a great track to listen to.
"A Little Want To": A very cute uplifting warm song!
Overall a really good listen! A solid effort!
