Country

I'm not a big fan of country- but most of the time I hear it brought up, it's in a insultive tone.

There's plenty of good country out there, and I've never heard honky tonk badonkadonk.

Reminds of my grandfather, every time I listen to it.

I am not a big fan of Country music, but what I do like is the outlaw stuff. I'll list a few songs some of you may just enjoy.

Hank Williams III - 'One Horse Towns' (Acoustic)


Hank Williams III - Satan is Real/Straight to Hell (Medley)


Hank Williams III - Angel of Sin


The rest of what I like is Cash, and others.

I love country. Thanks for starting this thread.www.youtube.com...

Thanks for this thread!

Country is one of the most underrated forms of music around. Without it there wouldn't have been a Rockabilly scene and without Rockabilly... no Rock 'n' Roll.

There is some great stuff out there:

A bit of Bluesy country rock from the man himself... BOCEPHUS.

Hank Williams Jr. - My Name Is Bocephus

And his ol' Daddy...

Hank Williams Sr. - Ramblin' Man

Tom T. Hall - I Like Beer

Marty Robbins - The Streets of Laredo

Just couldn't leave this thread alone.

Here's a couple more:

The .357 String Band - "Rollin' Down the Track"

Sons of Perdition - "Blood in the Valley"

Those Poor Bastards- "Pills I Took"

Joey Allcorn - "Graveyard Bound"

i was raised in the country yo so i know how it goes

powerful song yo!

These two gentlemen have been a staple of country music for decades.
It seems fitting that in 1983, these two collaborated on one of the Top 500 Song of Country Music. Here's Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard with Pancho & Lefty.

Great song. Originally recorded by one of the most under-appreciated artists in Country. Townes Van Zandt.

Townes Van Zandt - Pancho and Lefty

Son of Steve,

Justin Townes Earle - Mama's Eyes

These guys have been favourites of mine for a long time.

The Louvin Brothers - Cash on the Barrelhead



Knoxville Girl

You know, most people only have one mind set when it comes to country music. They have this mindset that all it is about is drinking, driving your pickup truck, or about losing your girlfriend. That, however, is not exactly true as most country songs are about life and how easy life can be sometimes if you live it right.

Here's a couple of songs that might fit that bill. This man was known as "The Voice of Country Music" for over fourty years. My dad was a real big fan of his for years. Sadly, Vern Gosdin passed away last month at the age of 74. When I told my dad about it, his jaw literally hit the floor.

Here is Vern and Doctor Ralph Stanley with Way Down Deep.


Here's two good ol' Kentucky boys known as Montgomery Gentry with Roll With Me.


The Statler Brothers - Don't Wait On Me


The Oak Ridge Boys - Fancy Free


Here's one for you bluegrass fans.

Junior Brown one of countrys huge talents
