Texas swing most certainly is country music. It's as country as country music gets. Pffft. The nerve of some people.

no body answered when i called your name...vince gill...modern day....i am so lonesome i could cry.. gill has a haunting voice


any hoyt axton fans?

When I Call Your Name is a nice song. Can only take so much Vince Gill at one time. That's not called a "haunting voice." He HAS TO put his nuts in a vise to sing like that.

Strollingbones you definatly know what REAL country music is!!!

Problem is, all of those songs you think are "real country" are just pop country songs of the day.

The original country music was in two forms: Sitting around the campfire and singing about ones life out of boredom, and country swing (often played in saloons).

LOL!

My daughter is a HUGE Johnny Cash Fan-she and I watched this for a bit, then she said:

"Turn it off mom, it's painful to watch! Even Johnny Cash fails sometimes! And the sideburns! EEK!"















{I swear she's watched " Walk the Line" 100 times}
