The Randy Travis album is my favorite of this week’s picks.
The Mary Chapin Carpenter album is brilliant.
I trhink they all have merit this week.
This is a failry decent group of albums this week – all good-to-very good except the Strait album which has too many truncated versions of songs and the McGraw album which I have not heard in its entirety (but what I have heard has not impressed me) .
WIth the exception of McGraw’s new album, I have all of these, but don’t revisit any of them very often as there are other albums by these artists that I prefer
