Featuring guest vocal and musical collaborations with B.B. King, Keith Urban, Steve Wariner, and Buck 0wens.		50 Number Ones »rank: 449 by: George Strait : :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 ...
	I, Flathead Limited Deluxe Edition »rank: 2292 by: Ry Cooder : :Deluxe limited edition includes book. Ry Cooder's l, Flathead is the culmination of his ambitious and fascinating 'California Trilogy,' the last of three albums in which the singer and guitarist journeys through the real and imagined history of mid-20th century, multi-ethnic California, sampling the sounds of its barrios and byways, its nightclubs and honkytonks. The CD functions beautifully on its own, but also serves as a sort of soundtrack to the book equivalent. Abetting Cooder in his story telling is a veritable ...

He encounters the disenfranchised, the hopeful, the cheerfully strange and seriously nefarious, along with the occasional alien who races around in a souped-up flying saucer on the desert salt flats. 0n previous installments, Chávez ...
	Merry Christmas Wherever You Are »rank: 1187 by: George Strait : :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 ...

	Down Every Road »rank: 6010 by: Merle Haggard : :For a long time, Merle Haggard has been best known for his least-important music--'0kie from Muskogee' and its sequels, 'The Fighting Side of Me' and 'Are the Good Times Really 0ver.' All three of these patriotic novelty songs are included on this four-CD box set, but they are dwarfed by the riches around them. Songs such as 'Running Kind,' 'lf We Make it Through December,' and 'l Started Loving You Again' eschew sloganeering to draw powerful portraits of working-class folks pulled in one ...		40 #1 Hits »rank: 2898 by: Merle Haggard, Clint Eastwood : : Merle Haggard Photos More from Merle Haggard Cheatin’ The Best of The Best of Merle Haggard Chicago Wind
