Product Description: George Strait has amassed so many charting singles that his record company has nearly run out of compilation titles. Now, fresh from Strait's 2007 CMA Album of the Year Award (for It Just Comes Natural), here comes 22 More Hits, a collection of singles that stopped short of number one but which built his career. "The Fireman," "When Did You Stop Loving Me," and "Lovebug" are fine reminders of his bar-stool-hugging days, when Strait spoke the honky-tonk gospel in a flat Texas drawl. That, of course, was before he waved goodbye to George Jones and Buck Owens (let alone western-swing master Bob Wills) and shaved off most of his rough edges for overwhelmingly smooth, mid-tempo fare like "How `Bout Them Cowgirls." An appreciative nod to females everywhere, if not all the girls he's loved before, it's a perfect example of how Strait, the consummate country crooner, can elevate average material to glory. But it's also an indication of just how perilously close he could come to being the Julio Iglesias of Nashville if he doesn't watch it. Spin a song like "If You're Thinking You Want a Stranger (There's One Coming Home)" and you'll remember when Strait could be downright--gasp--dangerous! --Alanna Nash

George Strait's 22 more hits
when I purchased George Strait's 50 Greatest Hits I had the option to get this one of 22 more hits. Great music. It's amazing how many great hits George has when you begin to count them.

Enjoyable
Last Christmas I bought 22 More Hits for my daughter. She's been a fan of his for a very long time. She listens to the 22 More Hits almost every day as she drives. She loves it!
George Strait has a sincere, pure quality in his voice. I find some country singers a little too nasal, but George has a nice sound. He puts honest emotion into each song. Sometimes when all the songs are by one singer, they get boring, but he varies the style. This album has a pleasing mix.
I highly recommend it.
