Released in 1985, this collection of George Strait's early hits demonstrates his easy affinity for honky-tonk (the Haggardish "Unwound," his 1981 breakthrough hit) and Western swing (the standard "Right or Wrong") as well as his ability to bend gracefully toward country-pop (the romantic ballad "Marina Del Rey"). But the most enduring song here is "Amarillo by Morning," a rodeo-cowboy anthem that, with its world-weary lyrics and lonesome fiddle coda, remains a perennial of Strait's live sets. --Rick Mitchell
