Artwork courtesy of http://www.music-atlas.com | | Biography: | | When it comes to his success, Alan Jackson’s disbelief can’t help but ride shotgun to his appreciation. Selling over 40 million records, earning 30 number one singles (22 of which he either wrote or co-wrote), winning more than 80 major industry awards and gracing pages that bridge The New York Times to the Newnan, Georgia Times-Herald, is, in a word, overwhelming. Consequently, both on and off the public stage, Alan can’t help but be a bit confounded by the idea that he connects with so many by simply being himself. Luckily, the byproduct of this is an ever-fortified sincerity, present throughout his Greatest Hits Volume II collection (Arista Nashville, release date August 12, 2003).
Alan’s ability to craft and emote first-hand subject-material has remained his most definitive trait—from 1989’s Here In The Real World debut to 2002’s career milestone, Drive. In particular, the ability to write and record intimate, subjective songs and then make them ours is what keeps him so in tune with fans. Examples permeate his catalogue: in “Drive (for Daddy Gene),” he sings about his father teaching him to drive on Georgia back roads, and we remember our first grip of the steering wheel; he notes the decline of the Mom & Pop stores he grew up with (“Little Man”), and we swirl in frustration and nostalgia; to the chagrin of industry forecasters, he records an entire album of classic country covers (Under The Influence) and reminds millions of how much fun it is to crank the radio and belt out “Pop-A-Top.” And perhaps most emblematic is the career-defining “Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)” whose apolitical, raw sincerity transcended the country community, uniting a diverse national audience.
Greatest Hits Volume II features 18 songs culled from the albums Everything I Love, High Mileage, Under The Influence, When Somebody Loves You and Drive. In addition to blockbusters like “Little Bitty,” “I’ll Go On Loving You,” “Right On The Money,” “The Blues Man,” “Where I Come From” and “Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning),” Alan also selected 8 album cuts to be coupled with the release. The consequent limited edition bonus disc contains songs that span his entire career, such as “When Love Comes Around,” “Hole In The Wall,” “Tropical Depression” and “The Sounds.” ...
