5.0 out of 5 stars A mid-eighties classic, June 6, 2005

The title track is one of George's most famous songs but, perhaps surprisingly, is the only number one country hit from this chart (based on Billboard). The two other singles (The cowboy rides away, The fireman) both made the top five in the country charts.

Overall, this album is typical of George's early albums with its mix of ballads and western swing-influenced up-tempo songs. Instrumentation consists of steel, electric and acoustic guitars together with fiddle, mandolin, keyboards, bass and drums. Apart from the three tracks released as singles, I particularly like Any old time, You're dancing this dance all wrong and Honky tonk Saturday night.

If you enjoy George's music enough to want more than just the hits, you will derive a lot of enjoyment from this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honky Tonk At Its Best, August 20, 2000

One of George's stronger albums, "Fort Worth" features a fresh and clear-voiced singer who has finally been allowed to follow his heart and make the kind of music he has always wanted to make. The result-his first "album of the year" award from the CMA. This album is lean and mean honky-tonk at its best and you should treat yourself to a copy of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT CD, January 1, 2005

This is top notch George, and there is not a bad song on it. "Honky Tonk Saturday Night" is a real highlight here because you can't get it on "Strait Out Of The Box". With country classics like "The Fireman", and the title track, on it, it should be viewed as one of his best CDs. Something else great about it, is that you cannot get most of the other songs, anywhere else. So if you are a GS fan, you should have it in your collection.
