Wednesday Video Spotlight: George Strait
George Strait
Country Music Hall of Famer George Strait will be honored as the Academy of Country Music’s Artist of the Decade for the 2000s tonight on CBS (KWTV-9 in Oklahoma City).
“George Strait: ACM Artist of the Decade All Star Concert” will air at 7 tonight. The concert was taped in Las Vegas in April and features Toby Keith, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, Jamie Foxx, Jack Ingram, Alan Jackson, Jamey Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Montgomery Gentry, John Rich, LeAnn Rimes, Blake Shelton and Lee Ann Womack.
For this week’s Wednesday Video Spotlight, I’m featuring some of Strait’s memorable performances, courtesy YouTube. If you want to see some of his music videos, you can also find them on YouTube, but Universal Music Group has requested embedding be disabled on them.
Strait is just the fifth country star to receive the Artist of the Decade accolade. The previous honorees: Marty Robbins in 1969, Loretta Lynn in 1979, Alabama in 1988 and Oklahoman Garth Brooks in 1998.
