THE PRODIGAL – REBA – Greentre R 3543 (Benson)
As a singer/songwriter Reba has few equals. Her beautifully moving vocals are the perfect complement for well-crafted lyrics statements. From the bluesy «Prodigal … According To Reba» to the reggae «Enchanting Isle Of The Son», the LP covers a variety of sounds to top off a stellar performance.
