Complete your George Strait collection. With this, the soundtrack to the movie Pure Country (starring the man himself, in his sole acting role), King George scored another winner. In spite of the movie's title, it's a contemporary country record from beginning to end, which means the signature fiddle and steel mixed in with more modern instrumentation.
wow, great country music by the Best Artist, George Strait.
PURE COUNTRY is the soundtrack to Strait's film debut, offering a variety of swinging shuffles, traditional honky tonk, weepy ballads and country rockers. He wears his influences proudly, and having been doing it so well for so long, he has, in turn, become a major influence on the next generation of new traditionalists. One can clearly hear Merle Haggard, Bob Wills and George Jones in his music; but give a listen to new guys like Clay Walker, and you'll hear a distinctive George Strait influence

George Strait starred as country singer Dusty Chandler in the 1992 movie 'Pure Country. Released on September 16, 1992, the album came together quickly out of necessity, because it had to be done before Strait shot the movie. Still, the musician approached the collection like he did any of his other studio records. Musically, the Pure Country soundtrack marked Strait’s first co-production with Tony Brown; the relationship went on to span decades. Still, Pure Country‘s soundtrack worked just as well apart from the movie, because it featured relatable songs chronicling the simple things that make people tick: deep wells of heartache and the kind of true-blue romance that comes along once in a lifetime.
