 Strait Out of the Box: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
The opening three tracks, all written by Strait and dating from 1976-1979, show a lot of potential on his part as a singer fronting a competent band.
Strait ultimately rebelled against the latter, but the songs off of his first two LPs show a prodigious talent in any milieu he'd have chosen to work.
Disc Two opens with the Bob Wills [+] number "Right or Wrong," which became central to Strait's sound and image and, in the early '80s, was a reminder that as smooth as those early MCA songs had been, Strait had a genuine commitment to Western swing and traditional country music.

 George Strait Bio
George Strait not only has staying power, and is not only at the top of his game, but nearly 20 years after galloping onto the charts carrying the banner of traditional country music, he is still riding high in the saddle, and thrilling his legions of fans.
In 1981, Strait’s first single, "Unwound" landed the humble Texas cowboy on the country charts, precipitated a genre-wide return to country roots, and kicked off a remarkable recording history that has seen the release of 24 studio albums, all of which have been certified platinum or multi-platinum.
In 1995, he released the phenomenally successful Strait Out of The Box, a monumental collection of 72 cuts, ranging from 31 #1 singles to obscure representations of his early days as a struggling singer.

This boxed set is what all other boxed sets should be measured by: top-notch hits, sentimental favorites, and songs from throughout a career.
Strait's sound never really strays too far from formula, and that's special, because most artists today come out with one or two solid efforts that don't really catch on with the mainstream crowd and either they or the record company changes them into some silly wannabe pop act or something along those lines.
I was a year old when George Strait came out with the hit "Unwound." The box set really is a walk down memory lane for me. I can recall most times in my life with the George song that was popular at the time.

George Strait's influence on modern country music is immense: all you have to do is turn on your local country station and you'll hear some of his countless clones twanging out a tune.
Thankfully, Strait didn't follow the pack when he emerged as a hitmaker back in 1981 with the honkytonker "Unwound." Country radio at that time was dominated by the slick pop sounds of Kenny Rogers and Babs Mandrell and the Urban Country crowd.
All of Strait's MCA singles through 1994 are included on this four-disc box set except for the "Unwound" imitation "Down And Out" and the dreary "Overnight Success" (smart omissions by the compiler Strait).

After all, every year he comes out with another album of Texas dance tunes and honky-tonk ballads, both delivered with that smooth baritone purr and a rhythm as seductive as it is slippery.
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.
It's nothing short of amazing that it's taken George Strait 22 years, 29 albums, countless awards, and a few dozen No. 1 singles to record a live album.

He is second only to Elvis Presley for holding the greatest number of RIAA gold and or platinum certified albums (by a male artist in any genre).
Strait proves equally at home on the barroom, truck-driving, boogie-woogie of "Honk If You Honky Tonk" and the lonesome Hank Williams twang of the rueful "Look Who's Back From Town."
But, if you listen closely, you'll discover George Strait's motivations are the same as they ever were.

The album picks up George's career where the boxed set (Strait out of the box) ends, so it covers the period from 1994 to 1998.
Picking out highlights in such a strong collection is difficult, but I'll nominate Murder on Music Row, Adalida, Blue clear sky and King of the mountain.
This CD does not contain any of the really classic Strait stuff like All My Exes Live in Texas, and anyone who is interested in Strait should really start with his true golden age.
