What is Real Country Music for you

And THAT my friends, is country music.

I'm sorry to say I'm not a fan of country music. The lyrics are too predictable for one. It just doesn't evoke any feelings in me.

The only time I enjoyed listening to ring of fire is when Adam Lambert sang it.

Strait Country

My favorite current country musician has to be Hayes Carll.



Of course, I love Bluegrass and Alt-Country as well...but since we're just talking country...Hayes Freaking Carll.

EDIT: Also Jason Isbell formerly of the Drive-By Truckers.

The Judds

Paul Brandt's take on a C.W. McCall classic

My dad had this 8-track...

Remake, but it's JC.

There really hasn't been real country music since before guys like Tim McGraw become famous. Real country has become so underground.
I like Hank Williams III idea of what country music should be and I like his sound. Ive met him 3 times, he's the real deal and super talented. Listened to his music for 10+ yrs and knew he was going to become huge and leave his mark. It's starting to look that way now. Check him out.
