 | | "Garth Brooks", released by Capitol Records in 1989, introduced us to a new style of country music which was, until this time, unheard of-the blending of traditional country music with a pop/rock sound. |  | | Brooks has gone on to record a variety of music under the country banner, but he is a country artist (the disastrous Chris Gaines project aside) who has successfully combined a range of musical styles to form his brand of country music. |  | | When Garth first hit the country music scene, it was back in '89 or '90. |
