By John Gavin, Wednesday, December 14, 2005

 

Craig Young is a 36 year old country music singer/songwriter/musician bornASCraigYoungTheHistoryofMeCDCov.jpg in Pushthrough, Newfoundland and now living in Nashville. Tenn. He is guitar player with the Terri Clark Band at present and performing all over North America, Europe and Australia with the band. He has been playing the guitar since the age of seven and performing with various country bands throughout his career. He has risen to the top with his guitar playing and won CCMA Awards for the past four years as part of the All Star Band for his outstanding guitar work.

Craig found time between tours to produce his new CD entitled, The History of Me. The CD contains 14 tracks in which Craig says, are all a part of him, the ones he wrote and the ones he didn't write. This is the reason why he titled the album, The History Of Me.

Here are the song titles: Can't Go Back-Burn The Housse Down-You Can't Take It With You-She Always Gets What She Wants-Plains of Abraham-The Ballad of Henry Rose-A Bettter Place-We Like It This Way-I Will Come Back Again-Alberta Highway-River of Sky-The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald-The Glass and A Part of Me.

The CD was produced by Jeff Jones and Craig Young. One particular track on the album entitled, You Can't Take It With You, was very successful as well as the video. It was co-written by Terri Clark and Terry Clayton and Terri provided back-up vocals for the song. Most tracks on the album are pure country music and all songs are a welcome addition to todays country music. Craig does an outstanding job on all songs on the album, and there should be more hit songs from the CD.

In the album notes, Craig gives us a brief history of his life, all words to the songs are outlined in a very clear format and he gives an explanation why the song was written. Craig has released solo albums before, but this album tops all others he has produced. Atlantic Seabreeze gives this album top marks on its rating list.
