I don't know a lot of classic country except from the movies I've watched but I did fall in love with two people's music from movies, Loretta Lynn and Johnny Cash.. I have to go with Johnny Cash.. his voice is exceptional.. no other voice in this world close to it..

I like Johnny Cash's voice and I like Merle Haggard's voice for the same reason. Slightly imperfect; a little rough around the edges; but totally honest and sincere. Listen to these four tunes. You may not like him at all but you may see what I see:
