    61 # 1 hits. There is a reason they call him King George...The King of Country. He is 72 and still sounds great. He's a rancher and a he was a team roper. He's singing about a bronc rider.

    Amarillo (Spanish for "yellow") is a city in Texas. He is heading there for a rodeo and reflecting on the life of a rodeo man. He lost his saddle, broke his leg, lost two relationships. He "don't got a dime, but what I got is mine". The life has cost him a lot but the freedom is worth it to him.

    Amarillo is a town in Texas. George was a rodeo rider &is known as 'King George' with 60 #1 hits. The man does not have a bad song. I love 'You look so good in love' which was also done when he was younger, but my fav is 'Troubadour' (a Troubadour is like a traveling poet/entertainer) which he did as a more mature man, looking back on his career. "Check yes or no' is a lighter sweet song. So many to choose from & all are excellent!

    Sit back and hang on. George has over 60 #1 hits and 80 in the top 10. George is in a class of his own! Has been married to high-school sweetheart for over 50 years. He is in his early 70s and still makes appearances at events (Lately tributes to other artists such at late Toby Keith). Good songs to listen to are Troubadour, I Can Still Make Cheyenne, Carrying Your Love With Me. For a little humor Check Yes or No, The Chair, or All My Ex's Live in Texas.

    • @snakeinthegrass7443
      @snakeinthegrass7443 Місяць тому +3

      Wow! That's impressive. I've heard his name but I don't think I ever heard a song except the last one, and that may have been a cover. But my gosh, what a career! And married all that time to his HS sweetheart. Gotta love that. And he's a very good looking man, imo. I'm just a guy who likes women, but I think I know a handsome man, geez, he's handsome! And his voice is like butter here. I'm here for the ride. Thanks for the info, Donna. Why haven't I heard more George Strait? Maybe I have and just don't realize it. I'm not a big country fan - especially these days. Very few artists are actually singing true country anymore, imo. Every time I hit the channel to see what's going on, sounds like a rapper with a twang. What's going on??? Are you kidding me. I'm a George Jones, and now, apparently, a George Strait kinda guy. Have a blessed day.

  • @firedoc5

    George is truly the King of Country music. The late 80's and through the 90's was the last gasp of real country music before trying to mix with rap and harder music genres. George didn't only sing about rodeo and cowboying, but he lived it by participating in rodeos and worked at his ranch. As for us that grew up raising horses, going to rodeos, attending trail rides, he was/is a true hero of ours. BTW: Since I have no musical talent whatsoever, I wound up learning the boards and became a sound guy. Mostly church, local bands, small concerts, etc.

    George Harvey Strait Sr. (born May 18, 1952) is an American country music singer, songwriter, actor, and music producer. He is credited for pioneering the neotraditional country style in the 1980s, famed for his authentic cowboy image and roots-oriented sound at a time when the Nashville music industry was dominated by country pop crossover acts. Given his influence on the genre, Strait has been nicknamed the "King of Country Music" by writers and music critics. >>>>>He currently holds the record for the most number-one songs on all charts by an artist, in any genre of music.

    • @llanitedave

      And to think, he was ready to quit trying and go back to ranching after years of having no luck in the music industry, when his wife talked him into giving it one last shot. He took that final shot, scored a bulls-eye, and the rest is history.

    Given his influence on the genre, Strait has been nicknamed the "King of Country Music" by writers and music critics. He currently holds the record for the most number one songs on all charts by an artist, in any genre of music." Over his 33-year recording career, Strait has had 60 number one hits, more than any other performer in history. I met a rodeo bull rider over the weekend. He says he's got about $140,000.00 of medical bills. He says after paying all his expenses for the year, he only makes about $10,000
