  • All Music

    digs even deeper into traditional country, rooted heavily on Western swing and pure honky tonk, from the shuffles to the barroom ballads that pop up regularly.

  • Slacker

    It's a no-fuss, straight-ahead record, and while it may be no different than Strait's other records, it doesn't make Something Special any less special.

  • All CD Covers

    Occasionally, the album wanders into softer, more sentimental territory than Strait has explored in the past, yet that only makes the straight country more effective.

  • FYE

    A bit of radio-ready gloss -- gloss that may be slick, but not too pop -- and the rest of the album is lean classic country.
