Editorial Review:
The follow-up CD to George Strait's platinum selling and CMA Album of the Year, IT JUST COMES NATURAL, is TROUBADOUR. George Strait truly is a modern day troubadour - now in his 28th year of making music,George continues to be an artist driven by his passion to make music of the highest quality.
TROUBADOUR features the smash single "I Saw God Today".
Description of Troubadour:
Well into his third decade at the top, album # 37 for George Strait maintains the consistency and high quality that's marked the vast majority of his work from the start. Like Alan Jackson, he's has always been more comfortable in conventional country fiddle and steel guitar settings, and that's largely where he remains with Troubadour. Even the good-natured, Caribbean feel of "River of Love" is closer to vintage Strait than Jimmy Buffett. The more somber "House of Cash" is a duet with Patty Loveless. It tells the story of the tragic, 2007 fire that took the home of Johnny Cash, and reflects on what could not be obliterated by the flames. Strait reverts to classic, Lone Star State form with "Make Her Fall With Me Song," a honky tonk shuffle in the style of Ray Price or George Jones, while the gorgeous western swing-driven "That West Texas Town" is a duet with Dean Dillon. With Troubadour Strait avoids surprises, if only by virtue of his continuing skill working wonders within a time-honored style. --Rich Kienzle
Troubadour Reviews:
A disappointment 
2009-12-06 - This is not George's standard.
Experimenting with a different sound.
Wish I had not bought this CD.
Great CD 
2009-12-05 - This is a great CD. George Strait has real staying power with his fans. I bought this as a gift for my son and I bought one for myself. I never get tired of listening to it.
What a bore! 
2009-09-07 - Boring, predictable, not even a good voice. It amazes me how many hits this guy has had. Most of his songs are really bland and not at all difficult to sing.
CD no good after 2 playings 
2009-08-13 - The cd was playing fine. After 3 complete playings it no longer works. It shows it is playing on my cd but there is no sound. My player is fine it has to be the cd.
I am not pleased!!!
King George Continue 
2009-07-12 - Been a fan of George since the early 80's and can say will always be one of the best. It great to see his music flows with him as he moves through life. Great Texas music.
