- Filme e TV
A little-known Texan singer walked into a Nashville recording studio to record his first single in early 1981. By the end of that year, George Strait had a few hit singles and a strong first album under his belt, and he was on his way to stardom in country music.
Sept. 4, 2021, marks 40 years since the release of Strait's debut album, Strait Country. The latest episode of Culture Hubb features Justin breaking down the album song by song. Which ones stand out? Which ones are a bit weaker? What does this album mean in the wider context of country music? Justin talks about all of that and more on this episode.
*Note: The fourth song on the album is named "If You're Thinking You Want a Stranger (There's One Coming Home)." An unforeseen technical glitch disrupted Justin when he read that song title during the episode.
