Recorded live at Dallas's Texas Stadium in 2004, this long-delayed release is worth the wait. Over 15 tracks, the three superstars sing together, separately, and in pairs for what turns out to be both a musical treat and a long draw of fun. Strait, who normally stands stock still in concert, loosens up and--surprise!--talks between songs ("That's country right there now"), and if my ears heard right, may actually say the word "ass." His is the strongest section musically, as he uses the western-swing classic "Milk Cow Blues" to stretch out with a fine showcase of his Ace in the Hole Band, and brings Jackson out for a masterful version of their hit "Murder on Music Row." But Jackson's set offers a personality-rich rendition of "Where I Come From," as well as a bluegrass version of Steve Young's "Seven Bridges Road" and a sturdy cover of "Texas Women," Hank Williams Jr.'s exercise in Lone Star braggadocio. Buffett gets a little too cute on "Margaritaville," on which over-the-top chorines shout, "Salt! Salt! Salt!" But when Jackson and Strait join him for a rousing romp through "Hey, Good Lookin'," you can almost see the ghost of Hank Sr. dancing in the aisles. --Alanna Nash
Album Description
Mega-stars Alan Jackson, George Strait, and Jimmy Buffett joined together for the first time ever, Saturday, May 29, 2004, at Texas Stadium in Dallas. This must see concert turned into a party that Parrotheads, cowboys and the Lone Star State will never forget. With more than 120 million records sold, over 80 Number One singles and countless awards under their hats (or Hawaiian shirts), the superstars shared equal billing to showcase some of their biggest hits and fan favorites alone and together.The three of us have talked about doing this for some time, admits Strait We've had the pleasure of working with each other before and not only do we enjoy each other's music but we have a lot in common.'

 This is a great CD December 5, 2008
J. Haygood (North Carolina)
I've been a fan of Jimmy Buffett most of my life, and George Strait for about the same, and grew to like Alan after Five O'clock.
This is a great CD if you enjoy these musicians. "Murder On Music Row" is a good old fashioned sounding country song and makes references I don't get to the business, but I understand the context.
"All My Ex's Live In Texas"...ah yes. Great song, and more fun with Buffett adding some spice to it. Great version.
"Sea Of Heartbreak" An undiscovered classic from Buffett. He knows its a good song, I know it is, and you will when you hear it.
"Margaritaville", "It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere"....these had to be on there, and It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere is better live like this. Actually its better if you're in the arena...
A lot of good music, the show is very energetic and the songs fit together well. I highly recommend this disc.

What can I say about Alan Jackson that hasn't already been said. He is a great performer.

Cookie Monster (Pensacola, Florida USA)
Cowboys in the Jungle. Now I know what Jimmy meant. I am a long time Parrothead so it was natural for me to pick up this CD. Really do enjoy the music - just a fun CD. I recommend it!
EXCELLENT ALBUM July 2, 2008
Christopher Wallace (Indian Trail, NC)
Great album!!! I like the Jimmy Buffet songs on it but my favorites and the reason for buying the album are the George Strait & Alan Jackson songs. I love the "grass roots" country sound. I am tired of all the "Pop" stars trying to do country.
