Reba McEntire‘s Starting Over was released 30 years ago on Friday, Oct. 3 — and to celebrate, she’s dropping an exclusive 30th Anniversary Edition vinyl of the iconic album.
The country singer made the announcement via Instagram on the day of the album’s anniversary.
“Hard to believe ‘Starting Over’ was released 30 years ago today! To celebrate, we’re releasing an exclusive 30th Anniversary Edition vinyl on January 23, 2026 — featuring three bonus tracks, including my cover of ‘Heat Wave!'” she wrote.
“Heat Wave” is available now, but fans will have to wait until January to hear the other two bonus tracks: “Misty Blue” and “Tulsa Time.”
Starting Over debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart in 1995 and has since been certified Platinum. In the comment section, fans expressed their excitement for the new music and for the album’s first-ever vinyl release.
“OH MY GOD! THANK YOU I LOVE THIS ALBUM SO MUCH!!!,” wrote one fan. “This just made my day!! Been waiting on this one!! So excited for this!!.” commented another.
“I ordered that vinyl so fast! This album came out when I was 15 and obsessed with everything Reba!” added a third. “Can’t wait for the vinyl! And that poster is a must have too. How about that TV special??” asked a fourth.
Starting Over is the twentieth studio album by McEntire. The record is a tribute to her musical influences, and features covers of songs by artists she admired growing up. The artists she covered includes, Dolly Parton, The Supremes, Patti LaBelle, and more.
One of the standout tracks is “On My Own,” a collaboration with Trisha Yearwood, Martina McBride, and Linda Davis that became the album’s first single.
The album stayed at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart for two consecutive weeks and remained in the top ten for 19 weeks. It also debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, and remained in the top ten for two weeks after that.
The Starting Over 30th Anniversary Edition vinyl releases on January 23, 2026 and is available for pre-order now.
