Free Music Notes for 50 Number Ones
Free Music Review: I don't care
Hit: 5 Stars
So some of the songs are truncated. I don't care! Country music is not a genre with a definite pattern in the composition like concerti and symphonies. It was difficult to get all those 50 hits on two discs, and I appreciate the effort.
When I'm riding down the road and listening to George Strait, I enjoy his own unique style with a hint of the rhythm that Johnny Cash used and a big dose of the melancholy that made us all love George Jones. Then I hear some novelty country Western tune from back in the 1980's, and I'm smiling again.
George Strait is the kind of male singer that makes a woman feel good. When we women listen to him, we can think about the men in our lives. His songs convey an appreciation and love for women. I don't know of anyone else who stirs up that much feeling. He's not self-absorbed, and his lyrics that he selects are all about men who loved women. Often things just didn't turn out right. The poignancy of this album and the vulerability of George Strait affect me.

Free Music Review: It's George, so I give it five stars
Hit: 5 Stars
I love George Strait. He is the uncrowned king of country, and anybody who has listened to him and bought his records over the years know and love "King George." And if you listen to the opening vocals on songs like 'Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind,' you'll instantly know why.
While I have panned this release in some of my other George reviews (see 'Greatest Hits' where I complain about the really bad edits), I listened to this release and realized the edits aren't bad at all. Now yes, they ARE still edited, and that won't change, but if you're just avoiding this release because of the edits, they aren't that bad.
Disc one is where the classic George is. It features the new song 'I Hate Everything,' and the rest is the George from 1981-1992. The classic stuff starts with 'Fool Hearted Memory,' and ends with his role as Dusty in 'Pure Country' with the song 'I Cross My Heart,' which is the best song from the soundtrack.
Disc two features his most recent songs, including 'True,' 'You Can't Make A Heart Love Somebody,' 'Write This Down,' 'Check Yes Or No' and 'The Big One.' The edits here are, I think, worse than on disc one. But they aren't terrible, either.
Overall, this is highly recommended for a casual George fan. Not a bad set despite the edits.
Recommended. ENJOY!!!

I had listened to this album before buying it, and was determined that I would get my own copy. I am not a country fanatic, nor do I listen to a lot of country music, but I love listening to George Strait. Free Music Review: Straight to the heart
Hit: 5 Stars
As always George's music is great, but the CD goes straight to the heart and the head.
