Of these albums, 36 have received a certification of at least Gold from the Recording Industry Association of America. His highest-certified album is the 1992 release Pure Country, which is certified sextuple-platinum for U.S. shipments of six million copies; his highest overall is the 1995 box set Strait Out of the Box, which is certified octuple platinum. Of his studio albums, all but 2001's George Strait and 2009's Twang are certified platinum or higher. Twang is the title of the 26th studio album by American country music artist George Strait. It was released on August 11, 2009 via MCA Nashville, the same label to which Strait has been signed since 1981. It is produced by Tony Brown. Lead-off single "Living for the Night," which Strait wrote with his son Bubba and songwriter Dean Dillon, was released in May 2009. As of the chart dated January 8, 2011, the album has sold 662,023 copies in the US. The album includes three songs that Strait co-wrote with his son, George "Bubba" Strait, Jr., who is also the sole writer of the track "Arkansas Dave." Among these three songs is the lead-off single "Living for the Night," which was also co-written by Dean Dillon, who has also co-written several of Strait's previous singles. This album is also the second of his solo career to contain a song that he co-wrote, with 1982's Strait from the Heart being the first. The album's final track, "El Rey," is a cover version of a Spanish-language song written and originally recorded by Mexican songwriter Jose Alfredo Jimenez. "Twang" was released on October 13, 2009 as the second single, followed by "I Gotta Get to You" in February 2010 and "The Breath You Take" in June.
