Rhett Akins left Valdosta, Georgia on a football scholarship to the University of Georgia. He didn't stay in Athens long though. Friends urged him to pursue his writing and singing in Nashville. He did and "A Thousand Memories" is his first release. From top to bottom, a solid work, it truly sparkles in three places. "She said 'Yes'" is remeniscent of high school angst and small town hopes fulfilled, while "I Brake for Brunettes" pokes fun at us good ol' boys and our affection for good ol' girls. The real kicker on this CD is "That Ain't My Truck". A rockin' lil song about three staples of country music, trucks, girls and heartaches. This song alone is worth thne cost of the CD

I love this cd! I especially love the song "That ain't my truck"! I can't get enough of that song!

Heart to Heart has been one of my favorite songs period...I've always hope that he would someday see the light and release that song...Definately #1 quality song...The rest of the album is excellent but I never much get past 'Heart to Heart'. 'That ain't my truck' is also a favorite and one that I like to sing kareoke...Highly recommended...

Rhett's debut CD has some wonderful tunes on it, although it could do without "Those Hands." I'm still gonna give him 5 stars, though, cuz Rhett's awesome! He's the best performer and the cutest thing you will ever see! "I Brake For Brunettes" is reason enough to buy this CD, but the rest of it rocks, too. His ballads are heartbreaking and touching. Buy it! Also, buy Rhett's other two CD's, too! He doesn't get near as much credit as he damn well deserves!

Rhett's first album and the best of his 3 the others are great to. Seen Rhett at Billy Bobs several times and he can put on one hell of a show..

I love this cd! I especially love the song "That ain't my truck"! I can't get enough of that song!

This CD is where it all started for Rhett and some of his best work. "Thousand Memories", "I Brake for Brunettes", "What They're Talkin About", "Old Dirt Road", "She Said Yes", and "That Ain't My Truck". Rhett wrote a lot of the songs and sings his heart out. He has an Amazing voice and so fun to listen too. It's true to Country and one that everybody can listen too, even if you're not into Country. This is a must have!

Great Cd, first one i own of Rhett Akins but won`t be my last

I hate country music, but Rhett rocks. It's nice to see a country artist that can write/co-write his own songs (not just one or two).Very talented and puts on a great live show.

Knowing that his career was on borrowed-time, Rhett Akins remixed the entire album with hot hip hop producers. The result is the bootleg disc circulating in Europe as well as in and around the Southeastern United States.

P diddy (?) guests on Rhett's joint entitled "Yo That Aint My Escalade" (that aint my truck), and lil Joe shows up on 69 memories.
