50 Number Ones
: :When George Strait's 'She'll Leave You With a Smile' moved to the top of the country charts in early 2003, the handsome Lone Star crooner bested Conway Twitty for the most No. 1 singles by a solo artist. This collection of 50 chart-toppers, spanning 22 years, showcases the Cadillac of country singers at his best, blending traditional and contemporary stylings, but never straying too far from the core of his Texas barroom sound. 'Fool Hearted Memory,' from 1982, proves that Strait had his uncluttered production ...

Pure Country [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]
: essential recording:With the help of producer Tony Brown, George Strait redefined his relationship to the contemporary country mainstream with this 1992 soundtrack album, which became the bestselling single release of his career.

Merry Christmas Wherever You Are
: :George Strait is one of country music's GQ cowboys and leading male vocalists, and his first Christmas record is probably in every country holiday collection. This one won't be. Strait sounds about as engaged here as a perennial bench sitter on the hockey team. The CD mixes standards with middling originals, and Strait's puzzling choices of covers ('Jingle Bell Rock' at this stage of the game?) are only exacerbated by the likes of a story called 'Noel Leon,' about a guy who leaves his Christmas ...

George Strait - Latest Greatest Straitest Hits
: :George Strait's first three greatest-hits albums (now made redundant by the four-disc Strait Out of the Box) collected essential examples of contemporary country music. In his finest singles, Strait seemed to resolve, both commercially and artistically, the tensions between hardcore twang and New Country pop. His 2000 best-of set, however, documents Strait's decline. Oh, the radio play has continued unabated--12 of the 15 tracks here made the country Top 10--but emotionally it is a sad and tedious tumble from the Cajun stomp of 1994's 'Adalida' ...
