My Take
Vince Gill is one of those rare country artists who makes everything look completely effortless — the guy picks up a guitar and immediately sounds like he was born with one in his hands, which honestly, growing up in Oklahoma, he practically was. His voice has this gorgeous, aching quality that can break your heart on a slow ballad and then turn around and charm you senseless on something bright and uptempo. I've always thought he was criminally underappreciated by people outside the country world, because the sheer musicianship he brings — guitar, mandolin, you name it — puts him in a different league. The Grammy collection (twenty-two of them, by last count) doesn't lie, and his 1999 induction into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame feels almost understated for someone this talented.
