Re: Good Country Music

Marc Cohn is country? Since when? Does this mean we'll start seeing Elton John and Billy Joel videos on CMT, too?

Cohn is a pop singer-songwriter and piano player. He's very good, though.

Take care,

Well, I was thinking of "Walking in Memphis". I guess that's probably one of his only country songs, though.

Go pick up Loretta Lynn's most recent album Van Lear Rose. Absolute masterpiece.

Waylon Jennings
Willie Nelson (his earlier stuff)
Kenny Rogers
Brooks & Dunn

Hank Williams Sr (Jr's ok but he has more of a rock sound to me)
Dolly Parton

Reba McIntyre

Re: Good Country Music

Most of mine would be in the 90s, mainly cause mostly anything since 2000 in country is total garbage.

Alan Jackson (older stuff)
George Strait (older stuff)
John Michael Montgomery
Travis Tritt
Randy Travis (simply incredible)
Collin Raye
Blake Shelton
Gary Allen

I second most of this list. We have similar tastes in our country music.
