34 Number Ones is the seventh greatest hits compilation album by American country artist Alan Jackson. It was released in the United States on November 23, 2010 through Arista Nashville.[2] The release celebrates Jackson's 20-year anniversary since the release of his debut album.[3] As of the chart dated February 26, 2011, the album has sold 200,131 copies in the US.[4]
Content
The release includes all of Jackson's number one hits on various trade charts, from his first, "Here in the Real World", to his (at the time) latest, "Country Boy".[5] Newly included in the release is his cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" and Jackson's late-2010 contribution with Zac Brown Band, "As She's Walking Away".[2] "Look at Me", a song which was initially recorded for the soundtrack to Billy: The Early Years, was previously unreleased on a Jackson album.
The Essential Alan Jackson
34 Number Ones was re-released and re-packaged on April 17, 2012 as The Essential Alan Jackson. Both albums have an identical track listing.[6]
The Essential peaked at number 20 on the U.S. Billboard Top Country Albums chart.[7] It also reached #145 on the main Billboard album chart.
