I love Country Music - who else?

[polychronopolous]

She's ho enough for me lol.

I love 'Here I am' and 'Don't toss us away' - proper ballads.

'Timber I'm falling in love', 'Blame it on your heart', 'How can I help you say goodbye', 'I think about Elvis', 'Lonely too Long', 'You don't seem to miss me' are just a few.

That woman had a ton of good songs. She could pull off the ballads plus the more lighter, funnier type stuff as well.

We're losing all the outlaws that had to stand their ground and they're being replaced by these kids from a manufactured town and they don't have no idea about sorrow and woe because they're all just too damn busy kissing ass on music road. So, I'm here to put the dick in Dixie and the girl back in country, because the kind of country I hear nowadays is a bunch of fucking shit to me. They say that I'm ill mannered and I'm gonna self destruct but if you know what I'm thinking you'll know that pop country really sucks.

Recently saw him out here in SoCal.

I think what sets her apart from Patsy and Loretta Lynn, is that Patty was singing proper country at a time when it wasn't cool in the late 80's early 90's.

Exactly.

There was really just a handful of mainstream males and females doing the more traditional stuff at that particular time.

Can't fucking stand it. Johnny Cash doesn't count of course... 

[ritch]

Nope, not a fan of that "yahoo" music....

[Man of Steel]

Can't fucking stand it. Johnny Cash doesn't count of course... 

Of course, every one hates country music "except for Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson".   

Those same folks have never owned a single album, cd or mp3 from either of them LOL.  Just "cool" to love them.

Pretty much.

Especially on the Johnny Cash part.

It's like trendy cool to "be into Johnny Cash"

[Rambone]

Bump. Some cheesy, mulleted early 90's country for the haters

I always thought Joe Diffie was pretty cool!

Not really traditional but I liked some of his songs.

[Fortress]

Not a fan, no.

But there's nothing wrong with the music. Just not my thing.

Shania was massively hot. But ... She was nothing much before she met Mutt Lange and now, with them being divorced, she is nothing again. Without the guy, Twain is just some ageing country-pop queen without the songwriting goods to maintain a relevant music career. Sad but true.

P.S. Some terrific musicians in the country world.

Comanche:  Custer Column's Sole Battle Survivor


Comanche Restoration Project
University of Kansas naturalist Lewis Lindsay Dyche prepared Comanche for exhibition at the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893.  Following the fair, Comanche was returned to the KU Natural History Museum.  Following a major restoration and conservation effort in 2004, the museum began exhibiting Comanche in a new exhibit, where the horse remains today as a popular attraction.  (Photo KUNHM)

Comanche (1862-1891)  was a 15 hand buckskin bay gelding, and the sole survivor of Custer's column from the myles keogh battle of the little big hornBattle of the Little Big Horn.  He was purchased by the U.S. Army in 1868 in

 St. Louis, Missouri, and was sent to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where he became the personal mount of Captain Myles Keogh of the 7th Cavalry.  During his military service, Comanche was wounded several times, and was admired for his bravery and toughness.

Keogh rode Comanche into battle on June 25, 1876, and was found two days later in a ravine badly wounded, very weak and barely able to stand.  The horse suffered three severe wounds:  through his neck, through his front shoulder and to his hind quarter; and four flesh wounds.  Comanche was transported to Fort Lincoln aboard the steamer the Far West along with other casualties.  He was slowly nursed back to health, retired, and orders were given that he should never be ridden again.
