As an artist Alan Jackson defies the norm as he cranks out hit after hit of traditional country music. There is a segment of Country Music fans that feel the older style traditional country music is lost. They feel that no one in the past decade plus has recorded anything comparable to the Nashville Sound that was so prevalent in the 1970s and 1980s. Their one stalwart friend in this mission is Alan.
The amazing thing is that with all the diversity that Alan's recordings have he still manages to keep the traditional form of Country Music alive. For example his romantic ballad in "I'd Love You All Over Again", His uptempo songs like "Chattahoochee" and "Mercury Blues", His patriotic song of "Where Were You When" and a religious album titled "Precious Memories."
