For the last week, I’ve been listening to classic country from the 60s to the early 80s. Anyone who defaults to “I don’t like/listen to country” is missing out.
BUT… I started a new job today, so I needed something to both boost and calm myself. First thing I thought of was the intro to “Go” by Pearl Jam, so the first half of Vs was my soundtrack this morning.
I tend to be one of those that doesn’t listen to country (but maybe some folk-esque stuff), who are some artists from then you’ve been listening to that you might suggest?
I started out just wanting to listen to Tanya Tucker’s “Delta Dawn” because that song is awesome. Listened to the whole album and really liked it. Then just listened to some playlists/radio stations with that as a seed.
The Highwaymen albums are good, but suffer from 80s production. That group is a killer starting point though. Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and…
I never even considered listening to Kris Kristofferson, but I’ve enjoyed his songs when they come up.
Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn… And I’m still just scratching the surface.
