Here Today... Gone To Hell!

...I LOVE IT.
ok, I don't live in Texas, I knew absolutely nothing to Country music a couple of days ago, but I listened to some country music (especially a song called "summertime blues", the intro is GREAT) and I love it! surprising for a french guy don't you think? :P in fact I love their guitar sound, it's sounds Folk, they use piano on rythmic sometimes, and accoustic guitars with a general cool drums tempo (mid tempo). It sounds a little bit like "dead flower" (Izzy/Axl version). it sounds like old fashion retro music but with a modern sound quality.
Axl should use folk guitars it kicks ass :D I love that sound. Anyone love country music? I read it's the most popular music in the US, country artists sell tons of albums in the US, do you know a good country album and/or artist?
It makes me want to drive on Road 66 with country music in my car  :hihi:

I'm not big into country but if I had to pick one artist, Chris Ledoux is the best.

I don`t like a lot of country music though, much of it out now  reminds me of pop/rock songs that diddn`t make it, so they add a little twang to it and pawn it off as country.

Never could get into it.

I'll listen to a Kenny Rogers album though. : ok:

I hate it! I have one Johnny Cash album though..

I can't stand country music.  I don't know what it is, but it irritates the hell out of me.  I can listen to just about anything, but country.  I do have to say that since some of the new ones are more rock sounding, I can tolerate hearing them...

I like some Johnny Cash, but that's definately it. Im more of a blues guy : ok:

Im a huge country music fan man..You definetly wanan check out toby Keith,Garth Brooks,Big & Rich,Montgomery Gentry,Brooks & Dunn...the best of all time Johnny Cash...

the good old banjo stuff is great. YEEHHHAAAAA!! :hihi:

The best Country music comes from the following:

Johnny Cash
Waylon Jennings
David Allan Coe


These guys are the epitome of "Outlaw" country music.  If you are getting into country check these three out!!!

I really don't like Country music, but that may be because I heard it too much here in the "Deep South". ;D

That is very hard to play, lets see any current pop country artist try to pull that off.

Used to be big time into Garth Brooks and I've just started getting back into him!!

lmao...I agree Cornell except for the last part about 'new country'..good lord, I rather shove a hot poker up my arse :hihi:

countrys gets a bad rap... its really growin on me, so is folk, holy shit i love folk... but the best fucking music genre is "altcountry" with bands like ryan adams and wilco.... OOOOH SO GOOD I WANNA CREAM MY PANTS!!

Alabama is a great country band. Little Texas is also great.

Check out "Squeeze Box" by The Who. It has a country sound to it. It's awesome.

Dolly Parton is also worth checking out. She's a great singer and songwriter.

Here's a few of my favorite country songs:

"Walk Away Joe" - Trisha Yearwood
"Two Sparrows In A Hurricane" - Tanya Tucker
"Friends In Low Places" - Garth Brooks
"Strawberry Wine" - Deana Carter
"What Might Have Been" - Little Texas
"Where Corn Don't Grow" - Travis Tritt

I recently got in country music as well, you could check out:

Chris Cagle
Toby Keith
Tim McGraw
Kenny Chesney.

and not one guy with his jeans hanging half way down his legs in the videos. ;D

I like more of the late 80's early 90's country music. Like the albums:

Clint Black - "Killin' Time"
Tracy Lawrence - "Alibis"
George Strait - "Strait Out of the Box" [BOX SET]
Garth Brooks - "Ropin' The Wind"
