      @@kenp.9762 Alan's voice is better, and he writes many of his own songs. Can't beat that. (George wrote a few songs, but not his best ones -- most were written by Dean Dillon). The other thing I would point out is that Alan Jackson's songs have held up better over time. George's songs were popular at the time they came out, but most of them have fallen off the radar of popular consciousness.

    To add to a quick post. George Strait holds the record for most number one hits on Billboard’s country chart. He enlisted (not drafted) as an infantryman in 1972 during the Vietnam war. He’s on a very short list of inspirations with Georg Jones and Conway Twitty for almost all male country artists. He really brought about a return to traditional country music, and very much deserves the title of King of Country. So much good music. Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind, The Chair, The Fireman. Keep digging. It’s a deep hole!

      King George. Dive deep into his music. I cross my heart, check yes or no, troubadour, to many to list. He never sang out of his range and still sounds the same today as when he started. He is a true country singer. He got discharged with today's country music and retired because like he said today's country is rock not country music. God bless you George Strait thank you for all the wonderful music.

      I believe he is a true gentleman! When I was in high school my friend was fighting leukemia her dad a well known team roper and George Strait met him several times. When he heard my friend was in the hospital fighting he sent her yellow roses and when they were coming in the door he was calling her hospital room. I’ve always admired and will never forget that three 14 year old girls were in shock and her mom was too we all cried.

    George Strait is a real cowboy. He actually lived the rodeo life which is what many of his songs are about.
    George Strait is an iconic country legend! He has released 44 albums total, 11 of which are compilation albums. He has had 60 number-one hits in his 33-year career. He is like a fine wine and gets better year after year. This is not a rabbit hole to gently ease yourself into, this is a rabbit hole you run to diving in headfirst!

    I've had the priviledge of seeing George in concert a number of times and, as a media member (radio), have actually been backstage and met the man. Not only is he pretty much just a regular guy and very personable, he doesn't put on a big 'show' on stage. He's just himself, gets up and plays the songs. Some artists are just able to interpret a vocal in a way that reaches people. George is one of the best at this, and I believe that is his greatest appeal. When he first came on the scene in the early 80s, his sound was kind of revolutionary. Country had gone really 'pop' sounding, which is fine, but George (and a few others) brought a more traditional country sound back to the forefront. He then proceeded to chart hit after hit after hit eventually earning the title "King of Country." According to Wikipedia, "Strait currently holds the record for most number one songs on all charts by an artist in any genre of music." He outta be King of something...lol. Thanks for the reaction, guys. ;-)

The 70s saw a country music scene that was crossing over and really was going towards pop. George brought back a classical sound to country. Try out : Does Ft Worth Ever Cross Your Mind, All My Exes Live in Texas, Baby Blue, Ocean Front Property, It Ain't Cool, The Chair, You Look So Good In Love, Marina Del Rey, Heartland, Adalida, and Love Without End Amen to start with.

    George Strait once came to a party known as "Spring has Sprung". I was about 10. He played with Jimmie Vaughan and his (you might know who) his brother Stevie. I wish I had understood the greatness that I was able to experience. My dad RIP played harmonica with them. Thanks for the memories, and the appreciation of classic music.

    My favorite George Strait song is "I Cross My Heart". It was written by Steve Dorff for the movie "Pure Country". George Strait had the lead role in the movie as the character "Dusty Wyatt Chandler". The entire contents of the movie lead up to the creation of this song that is unveiled and performed by George Strait at the end of the movie. It's a good little movie you may want to watch at some point in the future. But, definitely check out "I Cross My Heart". Another huge hit was "All My Exes Live in Texas". But, George Strait has dozens of #1 hits to choose from. He is an iconic legend in Country Music.

      All my Exes... I love that one, too. In the movie, Roadhouse, Sam Elliott dances with a girl to that song on the juke just singing along. Sam Elliott has the sexiest voice of anyone. (.outside of my husband). My husband wins because it's my ear he sings into. Roadhouse stars Patrick Swayze and features Jeff Healey playing guitar. That's a recommendation and a plea from an old OLD hippie. You ask how old? yesterday was our 45th anniversary, and I was a month shy of 27 on my wedding day.

    My faves by George are "The Chair" and for sentimental reasons, "I Just Want To Dance With You". Sentimental to me is because it was written by John Prine and the royalties from George's single, that went number 1, helped pay for John to have surgery for throat cancer.

I called to get the tickets, and the lady said that it was pretty full, but we would be sitting to the side, and a little bit behind him. But she said he knew people would be sitting there, so he would be turning around. Then she laughed, and said... besides you're going to get to see the best side of George lol He is famous for his Wranglers lol
