This record (which I own on vinyl) is ER’s 11th solo studio album & features 9 tunes. Side A has the un-released “She’s An Old Cadillac”, 1988’s “The Wanderer” (#1), 1988’s “We Must Be Doing Something Right” (#7), 1989’s “That’s Why I Fell In Love With You” (#66), & 1988’s title track (#1). Side B featured 4 un-released tunes: “He’s A Cheater”, “Rhonda”, “Workin’ Out” & “I Don’t Worry ‘Bout You”

FEATURE SONG # 1:
“She’s An Old Cadillac”
It’s probably obvious why this is, perhaps, my favorite Side A song (with “We Must Be Doing Something Right” a close 2nd). An added bonus is the “automotive art porn” of various decades of Cadillac excellence featured in the video; take a peak!


FEATURE SONG # 2:
“That’s Why I Fell In Love With You”
I’m only fond of 1 song on Side B, the song featured below. But, in case you don’t jump to 2:49 of the video to hear just that song, including this tune as well. For the record (see what I did there!?), I don’t like this song. However, I remember “accidentally” playing it once on 1 of my college radio shows & receiving positive feedback about it. So, maybe it should’ve done better on the charts? As it is, it was released as a single 05/13/1989, but spent only 10 weeks on the country charts, peaking at #66.


FEATURE SONG # 3:
“He’s A Cheater”
Now, to the song (starting at 2:49 on the video) I really wanted to be the 2nd of 2 songs featured! I mentioned above I’m only fond of 1 song on Side B, this tune. The very 1st time I played it, I loved it. Why? I’m not sure, but it has an upbeat melody & is a warning of sorts. I admit, some of the lyrics I’ve “changed” at different points in my life to fit some personal situations a bit better. I’m not the only person who does that, am I!?
