trace adkins for a guy and gretchin wilson for the girl

 

I used to hate country, then I got a blue collar job and I found some country that I actually can stand. Now the only music I hate is rap.
Hank Williams Jr., Hank Sr., or even Hank III. So many great songs right there.. Johnny Cash is great, Willie Nelson, Sawyer Brown, Billy Joe Shaver, C.W. McCall, David Allen Coe, George Jones, Waylon Jennings, also some Brooks and Dunn and a small amount of newer music.
Its so much more fitting to be driving around in my old ford with Billy Joe shaver's Black rose or Finally friday by George Jones, than something by SOAD or disturbed or whatever I usually do.

 

George Strait, Chris Ledoux, Randy travis, Willie Nelson, Garth brooks, aint too crazy bout all the new stuff, some of it is too popcountry or liberal sounding, *cough* dixie chicks... id spit some chew in their faces if I met em

 

I listen to a mixture of old country and southern rock...David Allen Coe, Johnny Horton, Alabama, Arlo Guthrie, Alman Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, Buck Owens, CCR, Charlie Daniels, Charlie Robison, Robert Earl Keen, David Lee Murphy, a couple Doobie Brothers songs, Georgia Satellites, Hank Jr., Jerry Reed, Waylon Jennings, Roger Miller, Billy Joe Shaver, Johnny Paycheck, Junior Brown, Merle Haggard, Skynyrd, Nitty Gritty, RONNIE MILSAP, Steve Miller Band, Tanya Tucker

I can't stand the majority of the new country on fm radio...it's too mainstream. If yall want to listen to old country and southern rock get a Sirius Satellite radio... it has five different country stations...Outlaw Country (the playlist is like my list above), Roadhouse Country (same as Outlaw, with a couple more slow songs), Bluegrass, Prime Country, and Newer Country. I love my satellite radio. I'd rather listen to road noise than the country on an fm radio nowadays.

 

mainstream pop country SUCKS.

my favorite country tunes come from Hank Williams III, wiether it be with assjack or the damnband. plays to my two favorite parts of the music spectrum, outlaw country and death metal.

i agree with skinsfan6 i like mostly old southern country, i also agree with the sirius satellite radio. although mines usally tuned to buzzsaw or hardrock, theres a ton of great stuff on there.

 

I don't have a satelite radio, but I agree with you on listening to the road noise. Ever since I got my new CD player for my truck I've been listening to my CD's more than FM.

 

all country and classic rock ....but my favorite country is Hank Jr. , Merle Haggard , Jason Aldean , Brooks & Dunn ( hillbilly deluxe)

 

Im surprized that noones said Corb Lund, him and the Hurtin' Albertans are all I listen to right now. Its more Western Canadian music but Thats what I love about it. For new country Corb Lund and Brad Paisley are about all I listen to.
Im also in the heavier metal like Rob Zombie, Ministry, Metalica, and some KMFDM.
We only got one counrty station in the Vancouver area(JRFM) and I cant stand most of what they play, all new stuff. But i also get a seattle station up here and for the most part thats alot better, especialy in the evenings.

Corb Lund-Truck got stuck video, favorite music video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDY6bWT5oTM

 

i like it all. not dixie chicks though. favorites would have to be trace adkins, brooks&dunn, and garth brooks.

 

don't think that it is 100% country but Lynard Skynard

 

Well I like just about everything mentioned on this thread! Classic rock, old & new country. Basically anything but classical or jazz crap. JMO

 

I like the same country songs that my grandfather's liked. Hank Williams, Hank Thompson, Bob Wills, George Jones, Johnny Cash, David Houston, Tammy Wynette, Patsy Cline... you get the idea.

George Strait, Junior Brown, Gary Allan, BR-549 and a few others are my pick for newer country... the Dixie Chicks are definately NOT on my playlist.

And, like I do in every country music thread I've come across on this board, have to say:

"Real country music died in 1962."

 

i'm with twin 66 on that one, mostly old country, hank sr. hank jr. and the possum too

 

George Jones all time favorite and I CANNOT stand Chesney or Mcgraw.

 

God...this is a hard question. So many good ones to choose from. I'd have to say my favorites are probably Bucky Covington and Jason Aldean, with my least favorites being the Dixie Chicks and Faith Hill.
