Music The country music repository thread

Dr. Johnny Fever · 06-26-2012, 07:42 PM

I've considered doing this for a long time but often figured I was the only one that cared. Kyle DeLexus' thread has shown me that's not the case.

If you have an appreciation for country music feel free to use this as a place to post videos, news, personal favorites lists, concert experiences and anything else country related. Old or new doesn't matter. Just have fun with it and ignore the haters.

Naturally I have to post the greatest country song of all time as a starter.

If George Jones ever did a better song it would be this.

That's a good song. ZBB is off and running to a huge career.

I can't listen to the Van version anymore, and I'm a big fan of his. ZBB is one of the few groups where everything sounds better live.

Heres my starter kit from the Godfather...

You know....one guy who wasn't mentioned but I used to love to listen to was Roger Miller. He had both the crazy songs like "Dang Me" but also had some pretty nice ballads that never got much play because it seemed to be outside what people looked for from him.

King of the Road was a great Country classic.

Blake Shelton will be at the Oak Park mall this weekend. I'm going to try to get the wristbands needed to go see him.

I'm also excited about Dierks headlining that Yallapalooza thing at Livestrong. I've wanted to see the stadium but hate soccer so it'll be nice to check out the stadium and seeing one of my favorite current country singers.

While I agree that "He Stopped Loving Her Today" is probably considered one of the greats, here is one that some of the old-timers consider the best song...

Roger Miller was my grandpa's favorite singer and King Of The Road was his favorite song. Brings back good memorys. Thanks for posting that.
