Leigh,
Thanks for the comments!! I know there have been countless debates on the "Classic" country sound issue. But it is interesting to note that "Bluegrass" has managed to keep its sound pure and "unmistakeable" for the most part, for decades. Somehow country music has not been able to do the same?? I think the new "STUFF" should have been marketed under a "NEW TITLE"??? Just my opinion. HOWEVER......$$$$$$$$$$$$ RULES!!!!!
Neil

Neil> I agree, what their calling country today is not, and that is my complaint!! Call it something else. A lot of the artists that are singing what they call country, can actually sing traditional country very well, but aren't allowed to! Martina Macbride did a classic country cd, and it was a big hit for her!! So the argument that there is no market for it is ludicrous! Anyway, once again thanks for keepin it goin!!
