Brad Paisley - 'Play'
What's different about Play, is that it's a mostly instrumental album. Along with the traditional Brad Paisley compositions, you'll find several duets with other well known guitar players, like B.B. King, Keith Urban, Buck Owens, and Steve Wariner. Plus, the version of "Waiting on a Woman" with Andy Griffith is included here as well.

Craig Morgan - 'That's Why'
That's Why is Craig Morgan's first album on BNA Nashville. It contains the hit single "Love Remembers." The songs on the album reflect things that many people can relate to. One of my favorite tracks is "Ordinary Angels." Another great one is "It Took a Woman." This is a tribute a man sings about his special woman. He claims that "it took a woman to make a man out of me." Then, for all those that love the song "Redneck Yacht Club," you'll really enjoy the song "Sticks."

Darius Rucker - 'Learn to Live'
Darius Rucker has been the lead singer for the smash group Hootie & The Blowfish for years, and now he is making his mark in country music. Ever since his first single "Don't Think I Don't Think About It" was released, Darius has been tearing up the charts, and creating new fans along the way. His new album Learn To Live brings a breath of fresh air to country music. My favorite track on this album is the honky tonk song "All I Want." He sings "You can have every penny that I will make on this here song. All I want you to leave me is alone."
