Also if you like Chris Stapleton's Tennessee Whiskey like I do check out Joan Sutherland, there's a lot more of that...

@ Gowi

That is true, most of the country I hear on those stations is just Tay.

I don't know, on the Easy Listening FM stations that have been popping up in San Diego (for driving) everything sounds so similar, and they have lots of old music too! Maybe I'll have to listen more to the artists you mentioned :)

contemporary country =/= all of modern country music

Yeah, music keeps getting recycled! If you listen to classical there's a lot less recycling. If I wasn't involved in music making I would just listen to classical!

You are very correct about most of what Garth Brooks has done. And the whole Chris Gaines thing...it's very, VERY bad.

The music of modern pop country is mostly recycled classic rock music with a steel guitar or a fiddle thrown on top to make it sound country. It is, again, not good.

Not really. Artists that have been mentioned here (Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton, Margo Price, Daniel Romano, Jason Isbell, for example) are all very talented songwriters and don't sound the same at all.

I don't think this conversation has been circular at all.

I know there's such a thing as Modern Bluegrass, but it's just awful. Alison Krauss and shit. It's way too slow and sounds like every other piece of shit record that comes out.

Obviously you have never heard this Grammy award winning instrumental from Alison and Union Station.

I'm familiar with his first couple albums which were pretty good, but I don't know anything after those ones. And I heard that this one is some sort of concept album about a rock star or something. I never heard a COUNTRY concept album before. I don't think there are any.

I'm going to listen to this later because I never ever heard it. I remember when it came out there was a lot of talk about it and I thought it sounded interesting, and I thought it would be something that I might like. I hope so. Has anybody ever heard it?

I think the same was true with classic rock a while back. Whenever you listen to classic rock stations and the Red Hot Chili Peppers come on it's like "what the hell is this!"
