: :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 uncluttered production and straightforward vocal approach down ... |

We've Got a Live One Here!(more) »rank: 6148by: Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen
: :Expert musicianship, a diverse repertoire, and an active sense of humor become an explosive mixture in the hands of the Airmen. Recorded during a 1976 tour of England, Live One shows the genre-twisting band in all its maniacal glory.
