It was first recorded by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band in 1994, followed by Hummon on his 1995 album ''All in Good Time''. Since then, many artists have recorded the song with Rascal Flatts's version being the highest-charting, becoming a number 1 hit on the ''Billboard'' country music charts in 2005 and earning the songwriters a Grammy Award for Best Country Song. ==History== Singer-songwriter Marcus Hummon co-wrote the song with Jeff Hanna (of Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) and Bobby Boyd. Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recorded it for the 1994 album ''Acoustic''. One year later, Hummon covered the song for his debut album ''All in Good Time'' for Columbia Records. His rendition includes backing vocals from Hanna and Matraca Berg. Michael McCall of ''New Country'' magazine thought that Hummon's rendition was the best track on the album. Sons of the Desert recorded its own version of the song, for a planned second album on Epic Records that would have been released in 1998. This album was not released, due to a dispute between the band and its label. Since then, many artists have recorded the song including Melodie Crittenden, Geoff Moore, Selah, Jamie Slocum, Carrie Underwood, Buddy Greene, and Rascal Flatts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bless the Broken Road」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
