5.0 out of 5 stars Chill of an Early Fall - Best Strait Album Ever, December 31, 1999

(I was not given proper credit for this review so I'll resubmit here.) =)

This album is by far the best to date by George Strait. There is not a song on this album that isn't flat out terrific. Strait's "Ace in the Hole Band" is featured on a few tunes: a cover of Hank Williams "Lovesick Blues" and my all-time favorite Strait tune, the un-released "Milk Cow Blues." The musical talents of his band are evident on the latter, and listening to the steel guitar (not to mention a sort of duel between the lead guitar and the piano) will give you chills.

Other great songs: "Home in San Antone," "Chill of an Early Fall," and "If I Know Me" (the latter two will definitely bring a tear to the eye of anyone with the least bit of sentimentality).

A marvelous album. A beautiful blend of swing and traditional influences are a treat to the ear. For Strait fans, this compilation is merely confirmation of what we already know--this man is awesome. If you are not yet a Strait fan, this one will definitely convert you! Ten out of ten!

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF STRAIT's BEST, January 1, 2005

I have given reviews of quite a few George Strait CDs, and mentioned four of them being in my top FIVE. This is the other one. First off, I cannot believe that there can be ANY negative comments about it.This CD is George Strait at his best, it has everything you could want in country music: Humor, love, fiddles, sentiment, and great lyrics. It has my second favorite song "You Know Me Better Than That" (Only surpassed by "Living And Living Well"), it has "If I know Me", "Milk Cow Blues" (Talk about great western swing), "Lovesick Blues, and two gems you cannot get from "Strait Out Of The Box" "Home In San Antone", and "I've Convinced Everyone But Me". This is really one of Strait's best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great One, November 15, 1999

This review is from: Chill of an Early Fall (Audio CD)

This CD gives a good balance of everything George is about.."Milk Cow Blues" is one of the standouts on this one that you won't hear on the radio. Another song that really stands up is "Is It Already Time"..If you want a real good cry or riding home after a long night out at the honky-tonk, plug this in the player!
