My dad was a big fan of country,'El Paso' was one of the singles he had.does gordon lightfoot fall under the country music banner?
Laura Cantrell has recorded 'The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald', I think I'd file GL under folk music.
not a fan of the current top 40 country music.

one of my favorite songs of all time.
YouTube - Marty Robbins - El Paso (1959)
I've bought everything Laura Cantrell has released.When 'Not The Tremblin' Kind' first appeared John Peel said "It's my favourite record of the last ten years and possibly my life".
When Peelie recommended something so highly it was enough to make me buy it.He was right,she's great!
I also have Gram Parsons 'GP/Grievous Angel'.I don't know if he was highly regarded amongst typical U.S country fans.I suppose they didn't approve of him hanging out with Keith Richards.
