maddmaxx ★ Posted August 11, 2017 Share #7 Posted August 11, 2017 I hope you told them that country music needs no excuse. It is not my first choice but I've been known to listen. This is good country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted August 11, 2017 Share #17 Posted August 11, 2017 I did a wiring job for a guy a while back, adding lights & outlets in the garage. He had speakers in the garage connected to a radio in the house. He and his wife left for the day, locking the house, and leaving a modern country station playing. About 5 hours into it I started tripping breakers, till the racket stopped. I like old country, and some new country, but what they played on that radio station reminded me of the night I was locked in a store overnight and the soundtrack included 'Red Red Wine' every 20 minutes. PS: Hearing that I rode bikes a bit, he proudly showed me his Walmart dual suspension cruiser. Told me that the shocks were expensive, but worth it... OK, now it's bicycling related. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's new country with that fake twang that sort of pisses me off. The steel guitars are a big compensation - love those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur ★ Posted August 12, 2017 Share #28 Posted August 12, 2017 The etymology of country/ western music in North America, pretty much mimics the settlement history. It was music for the people. That in itself, makes it the most credible of genres. It isn't my favourite but it is nice to kick back over a drink with once in a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
