THE DEAL Strait joins a rare club by earning that accolade from the Academy of Country Music. He's only the fifth to receive it, following Marty Robbins (in the 1960s), Loretta Lynn ('70s), Alabama ('80s) and Garth Brooks ('90s). Strait's 38 albums have sold a total of 67.5 million copies. WHO'S THERE The many talents involved included Alan Jackson, Keith Urban, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn, Taylor Swift, Sugarland, Montgomery Gentry, LeAnn Rimes, Miranda Lambert, Blake Shelton, John Rich and Lee Ann Womack. (The show was taped the night after the ACM Awards in April, at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena.)

QUOTE "I feel like I'm singing as good as I ever have, and I still enjoy doing the shows," Strait says. "I get pumped up and have a great time onstage, and I've been fortunate enough to find good songs throughout my career. It's just hard to pick one thing and say, 'This is why [this has happened].' "
