Wyatt Flores covering Jason Isbell..

N..... Noise.

Anyone thinking that Garth Brooks started the downfall of country wasn't paying attention to what Alabama was doing in the 80's.

Ain't no such thing as new country music

If this ain't country... I don't care!

boom


15 years late. again

I attended several Charlie Pride concerts, and enjoyed each one. The man was a class act.
I have absolutely NO desire to watch a slut in concert - no matter what color her skin.

More shane smith amd the saints..

The music takes it's twists and turns, and it really doesn't matter who thinks what of this country artist, or that

Country music may die someday, but before it does;

1) Farmers and ranchers will stop dying while working alone

2) Mines, and mining will stop killing miners

3) Rail crews and truckers will always come home to happy families

4) Women will acknowledge and accept their place in life, and always remain true to their husbands

5) Hell will freeze over

I like Patty Loveless as a country artist, because she's got the bones and life experience. But a kid from anywhere, with the slightest connecting thread to country life and death could just as easily pick up and carry on.
If they do music in the spirit of country, it doesn't matter what you or I think of the sound

Oh go listen to your Engelbert Humperdink reel to reel.

A case could be made for saying that anyone who insists that country music sound like this, or meet that expectation is wrapped a bit too tight.
There's a metric [bleep]-ton of country music I don't care to listen to. So I don't, and it's just that simple

There are songs from both Alabama and Garth Brooks on my country play list

And yeah... I'll put my delta, cotton/rice country bones up against anyones, LOL...

Just saying - a "Country band" with synths....
