Any Country Music fans out there?

I'm looking for some country music.. .. uh.. that's more rockish/bluesish.... Does that make any sense??
Any suggestions?

Johnny Cash? He was always my favourite.

Sorry, dunno much about music today. What about some line -dancing music? Achy Breaky Heart or something?

Cheers
Mick

Edit, BTW TheBurningCat works on a Country Music Radio Show (national in Australia). PM him or visit their website.

Ever heard of the Kentucky Headhunters? I don't know if they're still around, but they do fit into the "country-rock" segment.

Thud LOL that Avatar!

That names familiar... I'll look.
KNow anything current?

Uh Mickwish... sheesh! Johnny Cash?

What got me thinking about this, was the other day I heard a song on a country station.. (HA! that's all there is in Hayseed Utah where I live.. ) But it was different.. kinda blues like, and the guy sounded kinda like the lead for ZZ Top.. Naturally I didn't catch the title..

Sorry. I am old, you know.

Well, I'm not so old, and Johnny Cash is one of the few country artists I really like.

This is probably a pretty lame reccomendation, but if you like that style of guitar, maybe you would like Bonnie Rait? She's sort of a country/blues crossover.

That's the best I can think of right now...it's late. Glad you like the avatar. I'm going to have to work on it some.

Actually I quite into OLD country music..
And a big fan of Bluegrass, which was pretty much founded by Bill Monroe. If you haven't listened to any of that old stuff I highly reccomend it. Also the Carter Family.. Which Johnny Cash married into.


Hey! If you're old what's that make me!

Don't answer that!

You are younger than me, if I recall correctly.

Makes you a young lady, then, IMO.
