RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2011
Few stars of country music have risen as fast, shone as brightly as Ricky Van Shelton. Between 1987 and 1992 he released more than 20 hit singles – including 10 #1’s, 5 of them consecutive – and 5 Top 10 albums, three of which also made #1.
His records were played continuously on country radio, and he went from winning the Country Music Association’s “Horizon Award” for best newcomer in 1998 to becoming their “Male Vocalist of The Year” just 12 months later. Ricky Van (Van being his middle name) cut through the success of his contemporaries like the proverbial knife through butter.
The two albums paired in this collection present the sum total of Shelton’s Columbia catalogue of the 1980s. They feature nine hit singles, including the aforementioned five consecutive chart toppers, and they continue to show why he reached the pinnacle as quickly as he did. Read More
