Editorial Review:
George Strait consistently modernizes country music while keeping it rooted in tradition. Blue Clear Sky is one of Strait's best, proving again that the man knows a great melody when he hears one. The title track, for instance, sports a contemporary pop-influenced melody, but surrounded by pedal steel, it remains a country song, and a good one. The album's full of good country songs, in fact, especially the old-school honky-tonk of "King of the Hill," the power ballad "Carried Away," the almost unbearably pathetic "I Can Still Make Cheyenne," and "Need I Say More," where Strait swings like a hybrid of Tommy Duncan and Frank Sinatra. --David Cantwell
Blue Clear Sky Reviews:
One of my favorites!! 
2009-11-07 - George Strait is byfar my absolute favorite singer! This album is another masterpiece! Famous hits from this album include: Carried Away, Blue Clear Sky, I Can still make Cheyenne, ect.. just to name a few! This is a must for any George Strait fan and I highly recommend buying this album whether you like George or not because this is some of the best country! (:
Highly not recommended 
2006-04-04 - Buy this only if you're working on a George Strait collection. "It's listenable" is the only nice thing I can say about it. I do like George Strait's music but this one is uninspired, unimaginative and boring.
A typical George Strait Album and Even a more Typical country album. 
2005-10-18 - Some pretty good tunes here including still make cheyenne, carried away, and I'd just as soon go. But, like every other country album, there are some hits and then the rest is crap. It is very hard to listen to any George Strait album all the way through. Anyway, this is a very typical Strait album with the basic steel guitar and boring guitar riffs. Also, his drummer does a fair job and is pretty aggressive for a country drummer. Strait rarely surprises you which is nice because you know what you're gonna get. As far as experimenting goes there is none. Harmonies are good and there are some high moments. I actually remember making out to a couple of these tunes in high school when this one came out. I do think though Strait does a good job of creating and perpetuating a very classic country sound.
Solid George 
2005-09-10 - In a way George Strait is like McDonald's, you know exactly what you are going to get. The difference being George Strait is wonderful and will keep you coming back for more. I think this was the first GS album I ever bought and I was not dissappointed. With one great track after another I never tire of listening to it.
Blue Clear Sky
2003-05-01 - "carried away", "she knows when your on my mind", "I can still make cheyenne", and "king of the mountain" are the only really good songs on here, it's great, every country fan needs to own george strait his music is consistently WONDERFUL
