All That (album)

All That is the second studio album by LeAnn Rimes, released independently under the label Nor Va Jak. It was released on July 22, 1994. The album sold 15,000 copies locally, and a copy was given to Curb Records owner, Mike Curb, who later signed Rimes to his label and released her debut major label album, Blue (1996). The album was later reissued as ' (1997).

All That contains the original recording of "Blue". The album contains covers of Dolly Parton’s “Why Can't We” and “I Will Always Love You”, though the latter is done in the style of Whitney Houston’s R&B cover. The album also has a cover of The Beatles’ “Yesterday” and Patsy Montana’s “I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart”.

Background

All That consists of songs that Rimes performed during her concerts prior to her contract with Curb Records. Rimes was eleven years old at the time she recorded the album. The album was recorded in the spring of 1994 at Norman Petty Studios in Clovis, New Mexico and was released in July of the same year. Rimes recorded the song "Blue" which Bill Mack had passed to her.

The album sold 15,000 copies in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. A copy was sent to major record label owners, including Mike Curb who recalled: "Someone sent me her CD. I put it on and everyone just turned their heads and said, 'Who's that?'". Two years later Rimes signed her contract with Curb Records. Rimes re-recorded "Blue" and "I'll Get Even with You" on Blue (1996). Due to high sales of Blue, Curb Records reissued the album as ' (1997). "Broken Wing" as well as alternate recordings of "Why Can't We" and "Middle Man" appeared on her second compilation album, God Bless America (2001).
