Classic Country

[Ol'forest]

Thank God you don't all listen to thrash metal! :toothy8:
Charlie Daniels Band has to be one of my favorites, like Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakum, Waylon, the list goes on, not much new stuff Gretchin Wilson was an exception. But if you've got a tight handling mopar and some twisty mountain roads, nothing beats a bit of Scrugs' Foggy Mountain breakdown.:burnout:

I love country music...mostly the newer stuff (1990ish-present), but I like some Jonny Cash and a few other oldies as well.
My favorite is Alan Jackson.

Marty Robbins "El Paso"

I grew up listening to Country. Seems to be quite common. How could you not like Marty Robbins. Great, smooth voice, and he raced cars, too. Even starred in a movie or two. And I guess, if you were female, he was kinda good lookin'.

Ya know, it was only recently that I realized what this song was about. Hadn't heard it in years, but now my son is into old country.

Kris Kristofferson is one of the most prolific songwriters in country.

No.......

No what?

 

[Small Block]

No one mentioned Skeeter Davis. I guess if i had a preference it would be Travis Tritt and Marty Stewart. How about Hogy Carmichael? How about Woodie Guthrie? You guys probably aren't that old. Alan Jackson is good. I like to hear em do their gospel stuff also. That really lets me know if they can sing. If they cant sing they just play louder.

This is the favorite song of me and my Mother. I sang it for her at a tiny home town reunion a few years ago when she was the manager of WYAP-LP 101.1 fm in Clay West Virginia's June Jam Concert. I got 2 of my Mom's friends to play guitar for me and I made her day...
