During this period her compilation The Best of Barbara Mandrell also certified gold from the RIAA.

In 1987, Mandrell signed with Capitol Records and released Sure Feels Good the same year. It was followed in 1989 by I'll Be Your Jukebox Tonight which reached the top 40 of the Billboard country albums survey.
