George Strait is known as the "King of Country" and is considered one of the most influential and popular recording artists of all time.

His grief did not hinder his performance, however, or his output, as he went on to release 11 straight No. 1 hits, starting with "Nobody in His Right Mind Would've Left Her" in 1986 and ending with "Ace in the Hole" in 1989. The singles spanned four albums, including "#7", "Ocean Front Property" in 1987, "If You Ain't Lovin' You Ain't Livin'" in 1988 and 1989's "Beyond the Blue Neon", all of which reached the number one spot on country album charts. "Ocean Front Property" was the first country album to ever debut at No. 1 on the charts by any artist. The streak included such songs as "Ocean Front Property", "All My Ex's Live in Texas", "Famous Last Words of a Fool" and "Baby Blue". Strait finished the decade by winning the CMA Entertainer of the Year award in 1989. A year later, he won the award again.
