Neck ties and boxing gloves.
2meo, you may want to un-dap me, I was being serious.

I'm a big fan of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson.

So is Snoop.

I just hate that modern shyt.

Certified CAC here (I guess?), grew up on old school country music.

Merle Haggard - Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Star. Lots of sort-of-jazzy instrumental solos that you wouldn't stereotype as country



Glen Campbell - Still Within the Sound of My Voice



And the original country music black man, Charley Pride - Kiss an Angel Good Morning



Fun fact about him, his first two records were released in the late 60s with no pictures of him. No one knew he was black and he sounded like a white guy and he surprised the dogshyt out of the first few thousand people who came to his shows.

As a dude from Hong Kong, my image of country music is screwfaced old white people riding crusty pickups with straw in their mouths and loose overalls while mean mugging anyone that isn't white. shyt, even well dressed white people or different looking white people :manny:


There are some decent tracks I've heard though. Can't hate on a whole genre because of my silly misconceptions.

I listened to Johnny Cash for a while after that film walk the line :yeshrug:

I like a bit of country here and there. Mostly the modern pop country though. And always female, I started listening to Taylor Swift as a country singer. Cassadee Pope, the lead singer of a pop-rock band named Hey Monday I liked for a while became a country singer. Like I said I like the pop country with a female singer. And for whatever reason I can't really listen to male country singers. There's something about that twang that's like a pickaxe being rudely introduced to my ear drums.

Listen to Shania Twain. She's an early 00's country-pop artist and happens to be the best selling female country artist of all time.

I'm actually really familiar with Shania Twain. Come On Over was the first country album I ever owned. I got it from one of those Columbia House type things were they sent you like ten CDs every other month or something. Got it totally on accident and fell in love with it.

Does Linda Rondstadt count as country? I remember hearing for the first time at an exhibit at the rock and roll hall of fame and rushed to the giftshop to buy her greatest hits cd.
