That’s one of the few George Strait albums that I haven’t heard all the way through. I’ll have to check it out.

I think my favorite is “Give It Away”, it’s just a great song.

How about Marina Del Ray…that is one of my favorites. Also, as far as an entire CD is concerned, I can never get enough of One Step At A Time. Check out the songs That’s The Breaks, Neon Row, and You Haven’t Left Me Yet.

I love all your choices apart from Love Without End, Amen, which has always left me a bit cold.

Man, this is a tough list ot pick, but a fantastic idea for a post. Ocean Front Property was the first music I ever bought (on cassette no less). A lot of my favorites are some of the older album cuts that you don’t hear very often along with almost all of Dean Dillon’s songs. I also like both of the Bruce Robison songs that George has done. if I was gonna pick 10…

Honky Tonk Crazy
Haven’t You Heard
Lefty’s Gone
What’s Goin’ On in Your World
So Much Like My Dad
Last in Love
Without Me Around
Lead On
Ready for the End of the World
House With No Doors

At least that’s this week’s top 10.

Thanks for a great post.

Like you said, it’s pretty much impossible to narrow down the list to 10 but I was really happy to see “Amarillo By Morning” and “I Can Still Make Cheyenne” on the list. Three of my favorites that I haven’t seen mentioned yet aree “Marina Del Rey”, “You’ll Be There” and “Desperately”.

And then there’s Go On, Easy Come Easy Go, Blue Clear Sky, If You’re Thinkin’ You Want a Stranger, Chill of an Early Fall, I Hate Everything, So Much Like My Dad, You Look So Good In Love, Heartland, well, you get the picture.

Good job. Thanks again and Happy St. George’s Day! However, I’m guessing we won’t be seeing a George Ducas feature today.

you didn’t catch the line “lost my saddle in Houston” lol?
“Fool Hearted Memory” is still my favorite, and I was saddened to hear that George Strait himself didn’t really like it.
His best vocal performance (interpretation is probably the right word) was “You Look So Good In Love.”

There were a lot of songs I wanted to add, but I just had to stop or the list would have been 50 songs or more long.
