A Young George Strait Singing His First Hit…On A Boat [VIDEO]

Found footage can be cool, or even sometimes creepy, and in this case it's pretty darn cool. The folks at Classic Country Music dug up a video of Country Music Hall of Fame member George Strait singing his very first hit song 'Unwound' in 1981. And for some unknown reason he's on a boat. Now, this doesn't appear to be the official music video for the song, more like someone video'd him at a party or something (just sayin').

Interesting side note - the song was written by Dean Dillon and Frank Dycus, and they wanted Johnny Paycheck to record it, but he was in jail at the time. Strait made it a hit as his major label debut, charting at #6 on Billboard. And the rest is history...
