Data Insight

Easy Come, Easy Go keeps George Strait in song-picker mode at the height of his commercial run: he wrote none of its ten tracks. The title hit came from Aaron Barker and Dean Dillon, two of his steadiest suppliers, and Jim Lauderdale contributed two songs, so the writing column once again belongs to Nashville's professionals rather than the singer.

Easy Come, Easy Go is the eleventh studio album by George Strait, released in 1993 on MCA Records and produced with Tony Brown. It followed the blockbuster Pure Country and kept his commercial run going, certified double platinum. The title track, written by Aaron Barker and Dean Dillon, reached number one, and the album leaned on writers like Jim Lauderdale and Wayne Kemp. Strait wrote none of the ten songs. The record holds to the fiddle-and-steel sound that defined his catalog through the 1990s.
