Strait To Platinum

12/04/06
. (PR) You can add another jewel to his crown. The King of Country Music has received his 32nd platinum album certification for It Just Comes Natural, which was released in October. This certification follows on the heels of a platinum certification for Fresh Cut Christmas, a holiday album Strait recorded for Hallmark, which sold over a million copies in only one week.

These platinum certifications solidify Strait's record of earning more platinum or multiplatinum discs than any other artist in country music and round out a blockbuster month for the Texas troubadour, who was inducted into the prestigious Country Music Hall of Fame Nov. 6. Strait, who has sold nearly 70 million records worldwide, recently scored his 53rd number one hit with "Give It Away," the first release off It Just Comes Natural, reaffirming his status as the artist with more solo number one songs than any musician in any genre.
