Biography

George Strait is an American country singer born in 1952. He was the first of the new traditionalists, the generation of young artists that revitalized country music in the mid-1980s by turning away from urban-cowboy crossover dreams. He has won many awards over the course of his career and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2006. Of the 37 albums he had released up until the… Read more in Amazon's George Strait Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid album that is underrated and overlooked, July 12, 2000
This review is from: #7 (Audio CD)
Since George only released two singles from this album, it was not a big seller, which for George translates to "only" being platinum. Those two singles, however, are classic Strait. Nobody in His Right Mind and It Ain't Cool have George in full-fledged crooner mode, belting out a smoothly textured rendition of the two ballads. Nice lyrics on Cool with "suave and debonair".

It is a shame that other songs on the album did not get much exposure. However, I'm Never Gonna has gotten work as a nice dancehall waltz. People looking for dirt can also hear the notorious potty-mouth and bad-boy Strait utter the word "breast". Parental guidance is suggested (smirk).

Strait once again pays homage to one of his influences with a dead on cover of Bob Wills' Deep Water. Stranger Things Have Happened shows great wit, and how clever a song writer can be at altering the meaning of a common phrase. Why'd You Go And Break and My Old Flame continue his impeccable track record with traditional country honky tonk sound.

Misses include Rhythm Of The Road, which is a little too frenetic and all over the map, and You Still Get, which is a love song that is too low-key and without a lot of impact.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of his best, April 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: #7 (Audio CD)
This is a favorite of mine. My daughter had an outdoor wedding two years ago and George Strait music was played for all the dance music. This album was a particular favorite with "I'm Never Gonna Let You Go" being played for the bride and groom's first dance. Thus the album will always hold a special place in my heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you like country you will like tis one, May 13, 2000
By 
Scott (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: #7 (Audio CD)
What can you say about Strait? I know he consistently puts out great country music! #7 is no exception. It's a shame CD's like this one don't sell more than just a few million. "Nobody in his right mind would've left her" and "It aint cool to be crazy about you" alone are worthy enough to by this CD. Other songs like "I'm never gonna let you go", "Stranger things have happened", and "Cowtown" are some of my favorites. When you first hear some of the tracks your like "there okay". But after a few times they grow on you quick. Its now one of my favorites! I listen to the whole CD 3 or 4 times a week. Every song is catchy and fun to sing along with. If you love to country dance you'll love "I'm never gonna let you go", its my favorite song to waltz too! Buying this CD will not be disappointment!
