Best Neotraditional Country

50 Number Ones
This collection of 50 chart-toppers, spanning 22 years, showcases the Cadillac of country singers at his best, blending traditional and contemporary stylings, but never straying too far from the core of his Texas barroom sound. This retrospective's one new track, "I Hate Everything," about a man in a bar who's besotted more from pain than whiskey, doesn't match up with the singer's best material, but it's still got that irresistible Strait hook: average-guy sincerity wrapped in a down-to-earth heart.
Reviews
"Cant go wrong with the Man!"
"If you are a George Strait fan, and you know all of his music, this is a "5 star" for you."
"What's not to say except Every song is a awesome song."
"Just what I wanted!"
"This CD may be better than George Straits Straight out of the Box."
"Came on time and as advertised."
"A must have if you're a George Strait fan!"
"Literally could pop one cd out and swap over and over again."

Best Alt-Country & Americana

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
25th Anniversary Edition.
Reviews
"I've listened to Wilco casually over the last 10 or so years, in fact I owned this album on a poorly care for swap meet compact disc. I knew I liked Wilco so when I started to collect vinyl LP's again one of the first two albums I ordered was "A.M.". Without going into review critical territory I'm really not qualified to venture into, I'll say it's different, it's more of everything great that the cd I owned was not."
"I'd feel guilty and ungrateful if I didn't give YHF it's due praise on Amazon."
"There are some great pop songs on Yankee Hotel Foxtrot but that's just the beginning."
"Ironically, the more popular songs from the CD(heavy metal drummer) I don't find as interesting, though they may be more melodious. The best songs on the CD, however, are "Radio Cure" and "Ashes of American Flags" with amazing lyrics, and slow but mesmorizing melodies."
"I bought this as it was on many recommended lists."
"Just an great CD."
"Which is to let you know that coming to this album completely out of the blue, on the basis of great reviews, hype and friends who are fans, I'd have to say this album is pure genius."

Best General

Not for Kids Only
An aptly named album if ever there was one, Not for Kids Only combines the talents of two legendary performers, the late Jerry Garcia, singer-guitarist of the Grateful Dead , and David Grisman, mandolinist and father of "dawg music," a melding of bluegrass, jazz, swing, Latin, and Jewish klezmer sounds. On this 1993 recording, the two devoted friends make seemingly effortless music, adapting traditional and old-time folk into a personalized sound so "homemade" (with jew's-harp and tambourine) as to inspire any child, young or old, to pick up whatever's at hand to play along.
Reviews

"Great for parents who know other less enjoyable kids songs by heart, but want to listen to something they enjoy."
"Unlike a lot of children's albums, this offers music that won't drive parents batty."

"Everyone loves this album, such beautiful music."
"If you are tired of listening to Barney or the Wiggles, or any other obnoxious children's CD in the car with your kids, buy this CD."
"Got it for the Teddy Bears Picnic."

Best Christian Pop & Contemporary

How Can It Be
An invitation to encounter God in worship is at the heart of Lauren Daigle's first full-length project, HOW CAN IT BE.
Reviews
"The voice I hear on Lauren Daigle’s debut, How Can it Be, reminds me of Adele and the International House of Prayer’s, Misty Edwards. The handclaps bring a smile, as well as the chorus, “When you don’t move the mountains I’m needing you to move/When you don’t part the waters I wish I could walk through/When you don’t give me answers as I cry out to you/I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in you.” I hear an endearing lightness and it’s easy to identify with the thought of life being a battle and more than a little unpredictable. “Let the waters rise I will stand as the oceans roar/Let the earth shake beneath/Let the mountains fall/You are God over the storm/And I am yours.” This is unshakeable confidence framed in majesty. Though our world be shaken, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1). Daigle’s voice makes this regal, fitting for a King that presides over all. She starts off soulfully and becomes increasingly earnest, “Oh let this be where I die/My Lord with thee, crucified/Be lifted high as my kingdoms fall/Once and for all/Once and for all.” It brings to mind what Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote, “When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die.”. One of my favorite thoughts from Scripture highlights our need: “We all stumble in many ways” (James 3:2). As Robert Robinson wrote in a hymn, “Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above.” It’s why I like the line, “Be lifted high as my kingdoms fall.” Live enough years and it’s not hard to see the wreckage."
"I was out driving when I heard the single "How Can It Be" on my local Christian station."
"Only problem, there was no packing material/bubble wrap with this cd and the case was broken."
"I'm a new fan of this woman after God's own heart...her lyrics are raw, they're scriptural, and above all they are motivating and spiritually stirring."
"Great writing and Lauren's voice pulls you into the song."
""Peace be Still" by the Belonging Co. not on this CD but here is that great voice, exuding humble worship."
"Best new Christian artist I've heard or met in a long time."
"I listen to this often."
