Old country is the only good country music.... it borders on blues and even rockabilly and early rock.... some of the best music came from the southern United States in that time period
I love thus old country. I don't like where country is heading, it's heading out of country and selling out, being bought up, taking over by pop culture.
I want to thank my Grandpa Bucci, he had a old pickup with a 4 track player..... and owned only 1 tape and it was Ernest ..... time well spent with Grandpa..
In 1978 I had the pleasure of seeing Ernest Tubb and the Texas Triubadors in Colorado Springs. That Saturday night is one of the most memorable nights of music I can recall.
