Tyler Farr - Redneck Crazy

Also feeling Frankie Ballar - Helluva Life at the moment. Luke Bryan - Drink A Beer is fucking awesome as well

[hubb]

Yeah, ok I did'nt mean it as a slight

more like you should try not to dissmiss something just on a hunch

This is what most people who haven't listened to Dolly Parton say about Dolly Parton.

Jolene, I Will Always Love You, Islands In The Stream, But You Know I Love You... hell even Little Sparrow and her Bluegrassy stuff... she's in a different league to what people generally roll her in with.

If you ever want proof that Whitney Houston was an overrated hack of a singer you only have to listen to Dolly's I Will Always Love You. I've seen my Dad reduced to tears by it.

I've never understood people's blanket hate for country tbh... seems lazy as fuck.

Luke Bryan is 100% shit

[hubb]

People just don't like the association of the deep south, rednecks, trailer parks etc I would guess. That's why I specified mainstream, I've never listened to anything beyond the rubbish from the 80s you hear on the radio

It's hard to find some good country bits when you were just listening to breakcore right before

I sort of accidentally got into country HARD after Ween, erm, weened me onto the sound with 12 Golden Country Greats.





Once you can listen to saws, autoharps and lapguitars without flashing back to Misery there's a whole world of melancholy wonderfulness out there.

i've only ever gone as far as the late period byrds and gram parsons, but some of that stuff is the shit

[garethom]

Those tunes wub posted. Trolling surely? That drink a beer tune is shocking. Like a fair few of Conway Twitty's tunes tbf, shame family guy reduced him to a bit of a joke.

By "people" do you mean you?

Funny how we fall over ourselves trying to be reverential of music made by poor urban communities, but we're happy to dismiss millions of rural musicians as "rednecks from trailer parks" without even listening to them.

Feeling this as well today;

Blake Shelton - Doin' What She Likes

[ezza]
