Product Description
Originally released in January 2006, Alan Jackson s Precious Memories album was created
as an ode to his mother who, throughout his career, consistently requested that Alan
record a gospel album. So, Alan recorded Precious Memories with 15 traditional gospel
hymns, never anticipating that anyone, besides his mother, would be interested in the
project. Precious Memories has since sold 1.7 million albums and is currently out of
circulation, until now.
The re-release of Precious Memories on March 27th comes at a time when Alan Jackson is
as relevant to the country music format, and music in general, than ever before. As one
of the most successful and respected singer-songwriters in music, Alan Jackson has sold
nearly 60-million albums worldwide, topped the country singles charts 35 times, and
scored more than 50 Top-10 hits. He is a 17-time ACM Award winner, a 16-time CMA
Award recipient, and a two-time Grammy-honored artist whose songwriting has
earned him the prestigious ASCAP Founders Award and an induction into the
Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame as a 2011 Songwriter/Artist inductee. Alan has
written or co-written 24 of his 35 #1 hit singles, placing him in the elite company of
Paul McCartney and John Lennon among songwriters who ve written more than 20
songs that they ve recorded and taken to the top of the charts

By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Precious Memories (MP3 Download) Its hard to find a good musician with good soul in our times, but Alan Jackson is one. This is a great CD and I enjoy it quiet often. The choice of songs/hymns are spot on. By ennui (California) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Precious Memories (Audio CD) I saw a repeat of Alan's special for this album on one of the cable channels -- Alan sang several of the songs, I loved them, and so I was happy to see the album had been re-released. I find Alan's warm voice to be perfectly suited to the genre. |
