Remember when you used to be able to tell country and pop music apart? I still love 'older' country and 'classic' country but this new wave just seems like pop music made from people that are slightly more rural than New Jersey. Don't get me wrong, there are some newer artists that are still carrying the torch, but c'mon...where are the Willie, Waylon, Kris, Johnny, Merle?!?!?!?!
I'll keep hoping that someday soon we'll get a new surge in getting back there but until then? I'm happy with what I've got.
the Highwaymen-Big River
David Allan Coe-Longhaired Redneck
Hank Williams-Long Gone Lonesome Blues
Patsy Cline-Sweet Dreams
Emmylou Harris-Making Believe
George Jones-White Lightning
Kris Kristofferson-Help Me Make It Through the Night
Merle Haggard-Mama Tried
Buck Owens-Mental Cruelty
