Sunday Slowdown: Reba McEntire "Sunday Kind Of Love"

Looking for sleepy Sunday, lazy morning music today I remembered  Miss Reba McEntire's stylish and vocally flawless rendition of the Etta James classic, "Sunday Kind of Love."

A bit of intersectional awareness here: I'm currently staging South Pacific for San Diego Musical Theatre and Reba famously sold-out Carnegie Hall in June 2005 with a killer "Nellie Forbush" in the staged concert version of the Rodgers & Hammerstein classic.

Plus, Reba's music video for "Sunday Kind of Love" is set in the 1940s during wartime as is South Pacific.

In 1988, Reba's music video was nominated for "Video of the Year" at the Academy of Country Music Awards for the video below.

Happy Sunday everyone.

Sunday Slowdown: Barbra Streisand "Prisoner"

I came across this track, "Prisoner," from the soundtrack of the film The Eyes of Laura Mars and remembered how much I loved this edgier phase of Babs' recording career.

Featured as the love theme in the film, the single went to #21 on the Billboard Hot 100.
