I saw loretta lynn, david allen coe, and the best was the bellemy brothers saw them bout 3 years ago they did a tribute to roy orbinson and they ab-su-lut-le ROCKED the place down
U2 right now - just about anything off the Joshua Tree album.
spilled perfume by pam tillis, just substitute the guy words with words about drugs fits me to a tee!
loved Skynyrd...saw them twice in the 70s..opened for Uriah Heep (could left after Skynyrd but my girlfriend was a Uriaha Heep nut..and then a few months later they opened for the Who in San Francisco...still shaking from that one.
And then...there's Tower of Power...whoo boy
re: outatown...yep...and Mel Tillis, and may others...David Allen's Coe's classic "you never even call me by my name" is great. Today's country music is just too flashy..hard to tell country from today's rock..Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash..had the pleasure of seeing Waylon one time...quiet a show.

Switchfoot..."This is Home" from the Prince Caspian Movie.
When i listen to country its the old stuff, the new stuff is all copy cat nothing originol, like a lot of the new rock. I stick with 70s to realy 80s. Cocain blues by Johnny Cash is the kida counrty im talking bout. AND TANYNA TUCKER IS STILL VERY HOT!!!
so u like merel haggard waylon jennings david allen coe dwight yoakam george jones willie johnny kris kristoferson i much rather listen to old country than the newer stuff
Personally, I prefer what they'd call "Classic Country" from the era in which one of the stations local to where I lived at the time San Francisco, switched from talk to country, round 1974. In 1977 I moved to Colorado Springs and they had a DJ from Texas named "Tex Lively" who sounded about 80 years old, but man did he play some great music.
got me turned on to Bob Wills, Johnny Gimble an many others

I don't know Totsie...I use to drive my apartment neighbors nuts on days when I was cleaning...I'd play bluegrass, then jazz, then Grateful Dead, then Clapton, then classical (Beethoven's 7th my favorite) Strauss waltzes, Glenn Miller, Louis Armstrong...then back to the Grateful Dead..I just love music.

This is a very cool thread sure hope it gets alot more post
listening to some Jerry Garcia Band from 1975 "Catfish John" my favorite Garcia Band tune...the picture of hanging around the river as a kid with ol' catfish John in my mind is so cool....
"Mama said, don't go near that river
don't be hanging around
ol' Catfish John
Come the morning I'd always be there
walking in his footsteps in the sweet delta dawn"
take me back to another mornin'
to a time so long ago
Where the sweet mangnolia blossoms
cotton fields, as white as snow..
Catfish John, was a river hobo
lived and died by the river's bend
Looking back, I still remember...I was proud to be his friend.''
(likely spectacular guitar solo)
Born a slave in the town of Vicksburg
traded for a chestnut mare
Lord he never spoke in anger
though his load, was hard to bear..
I have to say that i agree with beargizmo - anything Grateful Dead works ... and outotown ... Southern Fried rock is always good also ...... When I get a Carribean craving i go with Bob Marley or Jimmy Buffet - - -
Blind Melon - Change
Linkin Park - What I've Done
It's pretty cool to see everyone's music tastes too... dominosarah got me with Seether - awesome. :) For me it's anything lyrically or melodically inclined to agree with my mood. Staind, ill nino, Mudvayne to Talib Kweli, Lil Wayne, Eminem and everything in between... my musical spectrum is wacked out for sure!! :) I know ya'll are shocked that anything about me would be wacked out... lol
This is a great thread - keep posting everyone!!
