Barbara Mandrell is one of my all-time favorite singers, but she is not the only talented singer in her family. Unfortunately for Louise, sisters cannot all be successful unless they form a joint act (like so many, from the Andrews sisters to Shedaisy) or unless they do significantly different music (like Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle, or Allison Moorer and Shelby Lynne). Louise's music was not sufficiently different from Barbara's to allow her to achieve more than a limited amount of success.
Many of the songs here were written or co-written by R C Bannon, who sometimes joined Louise on duets. Two of their duets are featured here - Where there's smoke there's fire and Christmas is just a song for us this year.
The foot-stomping I'm not through loving you yet, a Holly Dunn song, was (I think) Louise's biggest country hit, but perhaps the most recognisable songs will be Some girls have all the luck (a hit for Rod Stewart as Some guys have all the luck) and Save me (a song first recorded by Britain's Clodagh Rodgers, but which has been covered by others including the all-female South African group Clout).
Another guest here is Eric Carmen. His duet with Louise, As long as we got each other, is featured, as are two songs that he wrote or co-wrote, Maybe my baby and I wanna hear it from your lips.
This is an outstanding collection from a singer who is almost as good as her more famous sister.
