George Strait’s New Greatest Hits Album, ‘Icon,’ Due September 13

Universal’s ‘Icon’ series hits a home run with its upcoming release. That’s because on September 13, we’ll see an ‘Icon’ release that’s absolutely worthy of the term.

‘George Strait: Icon,’ Strait’s ninth greatest hits collection, will bundle 11 of the country legend’s biggest singles into one budget-priced package. Currently available for pre-order at Amazon for less than $9, it’ll provide the latest fitting tribute to a career that has generated 57 number one singles and almost 69 million albums sold — and counting.

‘Icon’ arrives one week after Strait’s 26th album of original material, ‘Here for a Good Time.’ The title track is already Strait’s latest top 10 single.
