Amazon.com essential recording: Sometimes a simple voice can carry the day. Take Randy Travis: his rustic, hickory-smoked warble can almost effortlessly conjure up everyday country pleasures--basic backwoods stuff that suburban folks have long forgotten. His brand of faithful retro took Nashville by surprise on Storms of Life, his 1986 debut, but Travis--thanks to poor song choices and a handful of awkwardly-penned originals--failed to maintain those lofty standards. But this, his second effort, from 1987, stands as his best--and his most commercially viable as well. It perfectly showcases those stunning vocals and opened the door for countless similar-piped honky-tonkers. His voice still waxes strong these days, but it's great to hear him hit homer after homer in this classic Always inning. --Tom Lanham
Customer Reviews:
- He has a great voice: I ordered this for my son, and ended up loving this CD, Randy Travis has a beautiful deep voice, and his music is very nice.
- Country at it's best: The reason I bought this album (again) is to remind me of what Country music should sounnd like.
- Always & Forever by Randy Travis: I am pretty new to country music and tend to like the older, softer balladeers. I wasn't crazy about Randy's voice at first but soon it really grew on me. Great lyrics that stay with you...
- Doesn't get any better!: I listened to this album every day for months when it came out in 1987, and into Summer 1988. Randy Travis was the "IT" guy, guest starring on late night TV and breathing new life into country music. I was a huge fan, and am still a huge fan. His voice is unique and a gift. This album is superb,natural country music. Delightful!
- Classic Travis: This is one of his best CD's! I listen to it over and over again!
