Boy do I miss the music of Conway Twitty, Hank Jr., early George Strait, George Jones, all four of the Highwaymen, early Alabama, Merle, Charlie Rich, Johnny Paycheck, the Oak Ridge Boys, the Statlers and on and on.
Sure, there are some great songs out right now but in my opinion, no truly consistently great singers.

Since we are on this topic, has anyone heard of Yankee Gray? What ever happened to them. "All Things Considered" is THE best song I have ever heard!
I only know of two songs they made. The one above, and "This time Around"
I would love to know if there are any other songs by them out there...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, pop country sucks. the only real good one to come out of the last 20 years is Hank Williams III, some of the best country stuff I've ever heard. better then his daddy and sure gives his grand dad a run for the money.

these new guys in their tight pants they look homo and don't sound very country at all.
I much prefer the old generation like Johnny Cash or Willie Nelson.

Most of the Modern country stars are all preppy and stuff they just SING country they arent country.

All of it sucks.
