It's been 14 years since Luke Bryan splashed onto the country scene with his debut album, I'll Stay Me, as it was released on this day (8/14) in 2007.
The album produced three singles with "All My Friends Say," "We Rode in Trucks," and "Country Man," all of which charted in the Top 40 on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. "All My Friends Say" and "Country Man" both made the Top 10 at numbers 5 and 10, respectively. "We Rode In Trucks" reached number 33.
