Donna Fargo was literally On the Move in 1976, from her previous label ABC/Dot to Warner Bros., where she made this, her sixth album. She got off to a rocky start when the first two singles for her new label, &Mr. Doodles& and &I've Loved You All of the Way,& just cracked the Top 20 while a competing ABC/Dot leftover sailed into the Top Three. Fargo always had a bubblegum streak, and &Mr. Doodles& reveals that tendency by marrying a straightforward song about long-distance romance to a pair of characters named Mr. & Mrs. Doodles. &I've Loved You All of the Way& is a pure country ballad, delivered in Fargo's raspy Dolly Parton-meets-Joan Rivers voice. As usual, Fargo wrote the bulk of the songs for On the Move herself, but the two exceptions are interesting; both the funky &Southern Lady& and the bombastic &Country Girl& seem aimed at reinforcing Fargo's identity as a country artist. On the Move is a fair album, but the caliber of songwriting is not up to Fargo's usual standards.
