Good Country Music

My friend who works at Universal music introduced me to a new artist named Shooter Jennings. All I really knew about him was that he was the son of the legendary Waylon Jennings. I figured that the cd probably would be ok at best but it turned out to very good. The album has a really good blend of country and rock licks that give it a unique sound. The cd is worth checking out. You can go shooters' my space page if you want to hear for yourself. www.myspace.com/shooterjennings

Hey thanks Man! I'm a Waylon Fan.

"Good country music"

Isn't that a contradiction in terms?

(waiting for the fallout)

Not when you're talking about the outlaws (or their kids).

Come on , man! O.K. Maybe good country music is an oxywhatever, but if you get into the guys like David Alan Coe, or even Willie Nelson, you'll see that they're pretty hardcore. I'm a diehard Black Sabbath fan, myself. Some of those country cats lived even harder than that. I can't go for the crying country where the dog dies and your woman leaves, but check out D.A.C.'s ultimate country song. It's funny as hell! I heard there's a country rapper called Cowboy Troy. Don't know what that's about, but I've gotta applaud him for trying.

Saw Black Sabbath about 37 years ago...ain't been able to hear a lick since.

I'll say this...Willie and Waylon and the boys could rock with Ozzie any day.

Cowboy Troy does a song with Big and Rich, pretty cool duo, even if you don't like country.

Ever heard the song "Save a Horse ..Ride a Cowboy".

Yes, but we're talking about music here...that's just a bumper sticker set to an (almost) catchy tune

i'm glad someone else said that - and i was raised on country - my father owned a country band for a while. i cannot stand the stuff even the new country or crossover country ...yech. and i'm pretty broad in my affair with music.

Sudster, Big & Rich rock!!

"I Love This Bar" by Toby Keith kicks butt too. Heck most of TK's stuff kicks butt. I'm a closet Country fan. SOME of it anyway. Leann Rimes is my secret honey (now that she's of age, of course...).

I'm partial to Roseanne Cash ..I'm not sure one could classify her as country though ..but they do. Leanns a sweetie!
