Alan Jackson will release his new Precious Memories Collection exclusively at Walmart on October 28. The two-disc collection features previous albums Precious Memories and Precious Memories Volume II, as well as two previously unreleased songs: “It’s All About Him” and “That’s the Way.”
Alan sang “That’s the Way” to his wife, Denise, at their wedding in 1979.
“It’s All About Him” was inspired by Denise’s book of the same title. “Inspired by Denise’s strength and ability [in writing her book], I sat down and wrote a song of the same title, hoping to add musically to an already uplifting story,” said Alan.
Precious Memories was originally recorded as a Christmas gift for Alan’s mother, and a handful of copies were shared with close friends. Prompted and urged by family and friends, Alan agreed to make the music available to fans in 2006. Seven years later, Jackson and his wife, Denise, revisited the list of their favorite hymns they compiled for the first album and Jackson decided to release Precious Memories Volume II in 2013.
