Essential George Strait CDs Every Fan Should Own

George Strait emerged in the early 1980s with a traditional sound that he's stood by throughout the years. His sound draws from both western swing and honky tonk styles, and his music has been an influence in many of today's rising stars. After more than twenty years, Strait can still top the charts, and artists are always honored to be chosen to tour with him. While he doesn't tour excessively, the shows that he does play almost always sell out. I've compiled the top 10 albums every George Strait fan should have.
