Rating: - Pure Country - Pure GoldI've been a Strait Fan since 1980, but the Pure Country movie and soundtrack led a lot of people to becoming George Strait Fans. This album is pure gold - pure platinum!!!!!!!!! Even the song sung with his son is good. I would advise them to get into some of his earlier music. If you can't get his other albums, buy Strait out of the Box. #1 Fan - JavyStrait Rating: - pure country dvdThis is an excellent love story that is rare to find, good clean and simple.
