Tim McGraw Artist Snapshot:

A slow starter career-wise, Tim McGraw, son of baseball legend Tug McGraw, eventually became one of the biggest country stars of the new millennium. After several failed singles, his politically-incorrect novelty number, "Indian Outlaw," became his breakthrough hit. McGraw's highly emotional delivery, coupled with his high-energy stage show and his knack for selecting excellent material, shot him to the top of the country and the pop albums charts by the late '90s. After McGraw married fellow star Faith Hill, the two became an unstoppable force, scoring hit duets and armfuls of awards, and mounting a top-grossing joint tour.

Review

Entertainment Weekly (5/7/99, p.65) - "...country's favorite underdog runs through a mishmash of touchy-feely emotions, teenage hormonal rushes, and bleeding-heart pledges, all the appeal to his legion of female fans..." - Rating: B
Q (9/99, p.109) - 3 stars (out of 5) - "...the results are as beautifully considered as the ballads 'Please Remember Me' and 'Some Things Never Change', only a cad would moan about the messenger."

With A PLACE IN THE SUN, Tim McGraw, the son of legendary baseball player Tug McGraw, has hit a musical home run. The follow-up to his insanely successful EVERYWHERE, A PLACE IN THE SUN contains McGraw's signature mix of traditional country, humor, romance and rowdiness. McGraw has a real talent for choosing well-crafted, slightly off-kilter songs (from top Nashville talents like Walt Alridge, Phil Vassar, Hillary Kanter and Mark Nesler), and delivering them so convincingly that you can almost believe he's the one who wrote them.

The 15 tracks range from the hard country of "She'll Have You Back" (the punch line is "...back to drinking in no time") to the heartfelt romance of "My Best Friend" to the sweeping grandeur of "Please Remember Me" (featuring harmonies by Patty Loveless). Highlights include "The Trouble With Never," the boisterous "Something Like That" and "My Next Thirty Years," a fantastic song about a man saying good-bye to his youth while he prepares, with some trepidation, to face the second half of his life. Fans may be disappointed to find there's no duet with McGraw's wife, Faith Hill. However, even with the lack of that crowd-pleasing element, A PLACE IN THE SUN truly shines.
