By far the only good country song in my opinion (albums, quote)

I love 16 Horsepower. Fantastic band.

16 Horsepower are very good indeed.

Those artists I named are but a few that I have explored. They are lumped into the the Americana genre.

To name but a couple that I like.

I am an unabashed fan of Jim White. He has 4 albums. His debut Wrong Eyed Jesus is IMO essential. The other three have exceptionally good high points. Why a singer songwriter of his ability is ignored I can only guess at.

Giant Sand. A weird off kilter mix of lots of rock and folk tinged country. Love them.

Willard Grant Conspiracy. Some highs on each album that to me are wonderful songs and stories.

If any of you are interested I will put together a mix tape of a few highlights
and put it on the main board. I am not going to bother unless there is interest though.
