Lucky Man is the second album by the country music singer Charlie Major, released in 1995.[3][4] Three of its five singles went to No. 1 on the RPM Country chart. It was certified platinum in Canada for sales of 100,000 copies.

Critical reception

The Calgary Herald wrote that "Lucky Man isn't full of tunes that sound like they fell off some Nashville assembly line ... The points of view are individualistic rather than formulaic and Major's lyrical empathy definitely leans toward ... everyday people."[2]
