Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Mark Chesnutt discography" in English language version.
Chesnutt's national country debut came with the single, Too Cold at Home, the debut single from his second album, came several years after his first album titled Doing My Country Thing entered the Billboard Country charts.
Neotraditionalist Mark Chesnutt recorded an independently released album, Doing My Country Thing (1989), before receiving national attention on Too Cold at Home (1990).
Arguably it's the worst country album title of all time. It belongs to Mark Chesnutt's first recorded performance, Doin' My Country Thing, an obvious low-budget accumulation of his talent that did manage to earn some local airplay around Texas and west Louisiana.
Chesnutt's country music career formally began with the release of his first album in 1988, Doing My Country Thing (the vinyl version of which is now a collector's item.)
