Waylon

[Habib]

Listening to Some of Him on My Dads old Mixtape he made. Back when country was actually country and played with instruments. Unlike todays Florida Georgia line what ever else pop radio, Trite, Contrived Bull ****. I mean the man played bass for Buddy Holly.

Sat around the campfire last night listening to Country Gold Saturday night. They played a ton of Waylon. It was his birthday. Great music!

Agreed about the modern Country. Can't listen to it. Love the Classic stuff.

So, yesterday afternoon (28 June) leaving Edwards AFB heading home I tune in to the local C/W station.
And I hear RAP
A C/W singer is actually Rapping, in the song.

So, yeah:
I tuned into Oldies

The first "Pop Country" was when Gram Parsons Joined the Byrds and they made "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" Now that was how it should be done. For a Pop act to go all country was very Unique. Not like today where you have Country vocals on a waterdown pop beat and all made by a Computer.

I had this song on a country compilation album way back in the 60s, it was the first song I remember hearing him sing:

I grew up in Tucson with dope ropers & KHOS radio....cannot stand hardcore steel 3 chord cuntry....just murder of 12 bar blues progressions. Willi & Waylon, some others i can tolerate, even like to a degree....Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash ok, but most of it to me is fingernails on a chalkboard......only thing worse is Mexican polka & rapp trap clap.
Thats what makes horse races.
Funny, in Tucson, it was always the cuntry bars that had Sunday jamb sessions......as long as they could dance slow, dripping all over each other, one could get away with shredding, so my standards were Stormy Monday & House of the Rising Sun......with very heated up guitar lix. For a faster meter, Green Onions worked well, & Since Waylon is topic, High Tides & Green Grass...the Outlaws. No sound remotely close to crying in Your beer, steel twang cuntry, but they always got up & danced. roflmfao....thats me, always sanding against the grain..........like here on bbo.
