The Real McCoy Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Y'all need to realize that I don't care much for traditional country as it was. Sure, I love Johnny Cash and George Strait, but I'm more more interesting in everything from the class of '89 forward. Guys like Keith Urban and Frankie Ballard I admire for their guitar playing as much as their singing and songwriting. I don't mind pop in my country, and I'm MUCH more interested in what's going on today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Shelton, Trace Adkins, Miranda Lambert. love Chris Stapleton. and of course Hank 3, who i do not understand why has not gotten more attention. But Kenny Chesney, Luke Bryan and yes, Keith Urban leave me cold. JMO *shrugs* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirius Outlaw Country is fuckin awesome. So how can you possibly like current country but dislike old country? That makes no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shouldn't say that I hate old country, as I said, I love Johnny Cash, and assorted songs from that era, I just don't have a connection with it. I can't stand the "my woman left me, so now I'm drinking my pain away" kind of songs that dominate that era of country. Country has evolved in to what it is today, and I doubt that it's ever going to go back to what it was. There are SOME traditionalists starting to break through: Chris Stapleton (even though I think that he's insanely overrated), Jon Pardi, Chris Janson, and William Michael Morgan are others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music Row = mainstream country. I love and will always respect Alan and George for sticking to their guns and never changing their sound for anyone or anything. Met Alan twice and saw Strait play an acoustic set at the Ryman a few years ago - THAT was a surreal experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok man- I know Chris Stapleton. Turn me on to something good from those other names who are new traditional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
