Album Notes & Community Reviews

Making history as the first album to ever debut at number one on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, this record solidified the singer's dominance in the neo-traditionalist movement. 'Ocean Front Property' elegantly reintroduces Western swing and pure honky-tonk aesthetics back into the mainstream. It remains a hallmark of slick, classicist country music production.
