Disco de Randy Travis: “Greatest Hits, Vol. 2”

There's something about Randy Travis, when he sings its like he's singing only to you. His voice seems to know just what cord inside of you needs to be touched. My husband and I listen to his cds often. Anyone who has never experienced the power of a Randy Travis song has a void in their lives, they should fill immediately. His voice can put a baby to sleep, soothe hurt feelings, open a slammed door and add romance to a beautiful night. I hope he never runs out of material.

This one seems to cover Randy Travis' most commercially successful period. Every song is not terrific, but enough of them truly stand out so much they make the album great. Among them:

-- Forever and Ever - Perfect country song about unconditional love

-- No Place Like Home - Yes, a traditional song, but sung with a lot of quiet dignity.

-- Is It Still Over? - Flat out one of the funniest songs ever written. A love song for couch potatoes.

-- Promises - You're not going to find a song where the singer reaches deeper into his soul

These are the standouts, and the rest of them make for a very enjoyable package.

I bought this cd for my husband for his birthday to replace the one he had that wouldn't play anymore. I'm glad i did and he couldn't be happier about it either.

The perfect companion volume to his first greatest hits volume, GREATEST HITS, VOL. 2 adds to your collection of classic Randy Travis hits in supreme style. LOOK HEART, NO HANDS, FOREVER AND EVER, AMEN and DIGGIN' UP BONES are just three of the terrific tracks you'll find here. A superb album.
