Randy Travis Album: “Old 8 X 10”
 Description :
Personnel includes: Randy Travis (vocals, acoustic guitar); Steve Gibson, Brent Mason (acoustic & electric guitars); Mark Casstevens, Larry Byrom (acoustic guitar); Doyle Grisham (pedal steel guitar); Bela Fleck (banjo); Jerry Douglas (dobro); Mark O'Connor (fiddle); Billy Puett (clarinet); Terry McMillan (harmonica, percussion); Dennis Burnside (piano); David Hungate (bass); Larry Londin (drums).
<p>Baillie & The Boys: Kathy Baillie, Michael Brook, Alan LeBouef (background vocals).
<p>Recorded at Nightingale Studio, Nashville, Tennessee.
<p>Travis's third album is another winner in the same beautifully produced neo-traditionalist vein of STORMS OF LIFE, and ALWAYS AND FOREVER, with a similar mixture of cry in your beer weepers ("It's Out of My Hands,""), I'll-love-you-forever songs ("Deeper Than the Holler," "Written in Stone") and neo-honky-tonkers ("Honky-Tonk Moon," "Is It Still Over"), all sung with Travis's patented George Jones derived clench-jawed soul. Highlights include the wrenching title song, which Travis limns sings with amazing delicacy, and "The Blues in Black and White," one of the wittiest breakup songs of the '80s.

- Wonderful Cd
This is a great cd , I grew up listening to country music and have always liked Randy Travis , his songs have a lot of meaning and makes a lot of sense when you listen to it . The words in his songs seem to go straight to the heart no matter if it's about a love gone wrong , or whatever kind of song , I have always loved Randy Travis , and just like all his other cd's for anyone who likes Randy Travis should get this cd , it's a great one . :) 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
- Randy Travis rules
Randy Travis rules country music to this day, many years after he released Old 8x10. His rich, true voice works wonders on these authentic country songs. There is not a bad song or a bad note on this album. If you want real music and not that screaming stuff that's out there now, Randy Travis is the very best. 25 years after his career began in earnest, his music remains remains unsurpassed to this day for its quality. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
- The Year The Cassette Tape was made in is wrong.
The year the Cassette was made in is not 1990 but 1987, because if you look in the booklet inside the cassette tape case it says 1987. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
