following have been #1 hits?

	- Stand By My Woman Man
	- Daydreams About Night Things
	- Smoky Mountain Rain
	- Back On My Mind Again

Please reply via mail,

Yes...she was really lip-synching and doing a *very* bad job of it.  
We decided (based on the hoarse voice comment) that they must have
recorded it during the dress rehersal or something because her voice
really was going out and they didn't want to chance her not being able
to sing during the "real" thing.

Everyone agree with the best video award (Alan Jackson's "Midnight in
Montgomery")? I think it was a good video, but I really thought that
Travis Tritt's "Anymore" was far and away the best video of the year
(and not a bad song, either). And I also thought Reba's video "Is There
Life Out There" was better than Jackson's, too. At least BRC didn't win it;
I can't even figure how his video got nominated. What was redeeming about
it at all?

(The song Alex is refering to is "Night Rider's Lament).

I don't really understand the song, either, but if you want to hear a 
killer version of it check out Suzy Bogguss' debut CD, "Somewhere

Rock & roll came from both R&B _and_ country.  That's the _simple_
explanation.  Yes, Elvis went to Memphis, but he might just as well have
gone to Nashville; they often play Elvis on country radio stations.

The original post made me laugh.  There really are some bad songs out
there!  One that I'd add to the list is "Read My Lips" by Marie Osmond.  It
came out shortly after George Bush won the presidential election.  I really
feel embarrassed for Marie when I hear this piece of schlock, which
fortunately, isn't that often.

Now how can you not consider people like Alan Jackson, Clint Black,
Randy Travis, Emmy Lou Harris country. They are new but they sing
and are heavily influenced by people like George Jones. Hey I am an
avid fan of George Jones(the king of country)
but when he starts mixing in strings and

Which is precisely the point.  For some of us long-time country fans, there is 
a sound that defines country, and it is usually the sound that people who 
"hate country music" hate.  It is the sound that makes "Someday" definitely
country and "Shameless" definitely not.  For us, the mid- to late-80s were 
wonderful with the rise of the traditionalists like Strait, Skaggs, Travis, 
Yoakam and Shelton.  At last there was country-sounding country on the radio 
and in the record stores.  Now to see it becoming diluted again is a sad thing,
particularly since it seems that it is being done so for the almighty dollar. 
When the record labels periodically seek to "expand country's horizons by 
appealing to a broader audience", we hard-core fans know what's in store. So 
we buy up what good country we can find and live off our oldies collections 
until the latest pop-flavored fad passes and the labels again realize that the
loyalest country fans out here like country BECAUSE of the steel and fiddle and
twang.

All IMHO, of course.

On Crook and Chase the next day he explained his emotions. He was very  
moved by being in the same room as George Jones when George was inducted

I bet to differ, I thought he was great! I also thought Diamond Rio was  
great! I own a LOT of CD's but, I like live music a lot. I love concerts  
no matter who it is. In most cases the entertainers talk between the

tourin only a couple of years, give him time to start getting comfortable

Worse still, Mary-Chapin Carpenter used that title for a song once, too.  I 
heard her & John Jennings do it at an acoustic concert in Washington, DC

To add my two cents worth. I find it interesting that when a Pop musician such

   Just picked it up at Sound Wh*rehouse last night.  It's
in their SoundCheck section, so get it while it's cheap(est).

  The album is called "Del Rio, TX 1959" (was this when/where 
he was born?).

  Only listened to it once, but I'm pretty pleased.  It's a lot
more "standard country" than the Foster & Lloyd stuff was. 

  Can't wait for Bill Lloyd to release an album....

I'm looking for information on Patsy Montana.  I know she was the 
first female singer to have a million-selling country and 
western song, and I know she has recently (sort-of given her long
career) put out a recording.  But that's all I know.

Does anyone have a discography with a description of the content
of each LP?  How much of her stuff is still around and is it
available on CD?
