One of the most explosive debuts in music history, SOME GAVE ALL catapulted Billy Ray Cyrus to the top of the charts on the strength of a catchy little ditty called "Achy Breaky Heart." The song turned out to be one of the biggest selling records of all time.
Throughout the rest of the album, the Kentucky-bred singer steamrolls through his country-styled rock `n` roll with rough-and-tumble vocals and a swagger that`s hard to match. The material ranges from ballads to country-fried rock, with themes touching upon everything from divorce ("Wher`m I Gonna Live") to patriotism ("Some Gave All").
