Tim Mcgraw Live Like You Were Dying Contemporary Country Music CD Review

Tim Mcgraw has released him most recent album entitled Live Like You Were Dying.

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.

The nice thing about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Contemporary Country isn't your favorite style you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.

I give Live Like You Were Dying my highest recommendation. It just plain belongs in any serious music collectors collection regardless of genre preference.

While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 1 - How Bad Do Your Want It, track 5 - Live Like You Were Dying, and track 14 - Do You Want Fries With That

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 9 - Open Season On My Heart. It's a great track!
