Album Review: Love Is Everything by George Strait

Fairly Good, Based on 2 Critics

AllMusic - 60
Based on rating 6/10

George Strait decided he'd retire from the road once he turned 60, so he launched a farewell tour in 2013 that is scheduled to run into 2014. Hanging up his concert hat doesn't necessarily indicate that he's taking a break from recording, so there's no suggestion that Love Is Everything -- his 28th studio album, released in May of 2013, just as the farewell tour began -- will be his final recording. True enough, Love Is Everything does not have the gravity that's required of a final statement, as it glides by with the natural ease that has been Strait's signature since the start.

Boston Globe
Opinion: Very Good

“King” George may have announced his retirement from extensive touring with his current “Cowbody Rides Away” jaunt, but this release — his 40th! — should reassure his fans that he’s not galloping out of the studio anytime soon. “Love Is Everything” is not his strongest release of recent years, with a few too many generic midtempo cuts and stately ballads. But Strait is the type of consistent artist and singer whose marginal cuts are often better than some folks’ best and that is true here, too.
