Yeah those were both fucking awesome. All Linda Ronstadt albums had a couple pretty good country covers on them. But all her albums immediately before Heart Like a Wheel were almost like country albums. Heart Like a Wheel is when she crossed over to mainly rock, but albums like Silk Purse were more heavily country and she was pretty good at picking good country songs

Anybody ever notice that all current modern- country singers are nothing but models? All the male singers look like models for a cowboy hat catalog, and all the women look like models for a women's Western Wear catalog. And they sing like it too.

And I love the voice of Carrie Underwood. She's popular but she's very good.
Plus Steve Earle is awesome, I agree. |
Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner!!!!! . This is what I was talking about. Those classic country SONGS.. And I'm embarrassed and ashamed that I didn't remember Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town and Jolene. That's exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about. |
Thanks Bobby man.
I like your lists as well dude. You picked a lot of good ones.
Right now I am watching a TV programme called Sisters in Country all about the famous trio of Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris. I knew Dolly's music but I didn't know much (no pun intended) about Linda Ronstadt or Emmylou Harris. Vocally they sound terrific together. Plus I am finding out their solo stuff is pretty good too. I knew Emmylou Harris from her work with Gram Parsons. Linda Ronstadt , I only knew her from a handful of her most famous songs. They all have amazing voices.
I know she's been mentioned but I also love Alison Krauss. I discovered her in the year 2000 and just love her stuff, such a sweet voice. Plus I like the album Raising Sand she did with Robert Plant.

Nice one. A genre I keep meaning to check out more so this will do. I have heard next to nothing in this genre but an album I've listen to a handful of times this year that I highly recommend is this one
Kristofferson by Kris Kristofferson

Four more months until we can see if her Grammy award collection can grow anymore! 
God bless you and Alison always!!!
Holly (a fan of her since 1994)
