I despise modern Country, and find it to be hokey & phony.
To my ears country is mostly blues without the soul.

that said, there are a few artists in the country genre that rise above.
I enjoy:
Lyle Lovett (I especially love "I love Everybody" -1994)

Lucinda Williams - her slow druggy drawl grabs me...dig "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road)

Alison Krauss - anything she sings is pristine and pure...even her religious songs go down with ease...she is a gift

Sturgil Simpson - Turtles All The Way Down...a video ALL must see!!!!

Steve Earle - he's great

the stuff I like veers more towards a Folk feel, than straight up country....but its what I enjoy.


I can tolerate a little Dwight Yokum


Johnny Cash - naturally, but he's just a bad-ass that transcends genre
