    I listen to Boston, but that's the closest I've gotten to country music

    Ghost Riders in the Sky.

    Go more to folk, for the most part - speaking of which -

    Does anyone know the name of the female vocalist who sang the theme song, "Johnny has Gone For a Soldier, AKA "Buttermilk Hill" for the 1995 Charles Kuralt narrated "The American Revolution" on the Discovery Channel?

    Already asked about this on another thread, but what the heck.

    chris ledoux and anything rodeo related also out here we have a station 100.7 the island off of the reseve and every tuesday night at 8pm they have the pow wow report they play allot of pow wow music, i like to light a fire and crank the stereo in the garage and star into the darkness and let my primitive spirit live for a while. i just keep thinking as the music is cranked that all the citters in the woods are feeling the drumming and chanting and it some how stirs a distance evolutionary memory/response in them also.

    Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone, everything that I've got is just.......................

    I like all music. Heavy metal and loud rock gets me going in the morning, LOUD! Motown in the afternoon mixed with more mellow rock like Dire Straits. Late afternoon it's country music, with a switch to Rock again while I'm doing curls in the truck.

    At night, you just can't beat that sad country sound.

    Zep. Pink Floyd, Met. and AC/DC are fine but the stations just usually play the same songs over, and over, and over again. You never hear Tull, Nugent, Zappa, Blue Oyster Cult, Doors etc. anymore. Most rock dj's are not even 30 and don't even know what rock is.

    Not a huge country fan, I'm afraid, but I quite like Bluegrass, especially if it's live.

    Holy moly. If it has to be country then Hank Williams Sr., Jimmy Rogers, Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers, Sons of the Pioneers, Roy Acuff, Ernest Tubb. Real Country not some jazzed up wannabe, let's make money for the advertiser country. Stuff that the American spirit was born on. Shoot, I'll even take Jim Reeves or Carl Perkins.

    If you want to listen to real music, then you have to go with the blues and someone like Muddy Waters or Billie Holiday or a true American crooner like Mel Torme.

    If I want to just relax and enjoy the mood in front of the fire then classic jazz from Barry White or Marvin Gaye, Al Green or Lou Rawls.

    You can't beat James Taylor or Eric Clapton no matter what you stack against 'em.

    Yeah, that's it. I can listen to Johnny Cash too (even before the movie came out)

    <Applause> And John Lee Hooker, and B.B. King, and Etta James, and Jimmy Reed, and Robert Johnson, and and and...

    You're pretty much listing my music collection here. Norah Jones is good snuggling-with-your-honey music too.

    You can't beat James Taylor or Eric Clapton no matter what you stack against 'em.
    Oh, and you were doing so well. Can't take James Taylor, I'm afraid. And while I used to be a huuuuuuuuge Eric Clapton fan (saw him in concert 3 times in the late 80's, the radio stations here have sadly, played him utterly to death and I reach for the station change button every time.

    As a blues fan, I'm happy that the music gets airplay from corporate radio. But it bugs me that we only hear covers of the originals, (invariably performed by white men). We rarely hear the artists listed above, or any of the other pioneers.

    I went to see Gate Mouth brown live about 10 years ago. I remember he kept stopping the songs to tell people to "quit dancin' this one ain't about that" good stuff.
