Well have you ever considered the birth place of a lot in not most
Country singers? Also the South has always been a romantic (literary)
place and much revered for its "country values". I can understand how
you feel though. I have been in the North a few times and in the rural
areas it is very much country and if you will excuse me southern.

I guess it's just an attitude, or feeling.

Okay, smart-aleck.  You wouldn't call these country?:

Lyin' Eyes
Take It Easy
Seven Bridges Road
Peaceful Easy Feeling
Tequila Sunrise
Best of My Love
New Kid in Town

Okay, so "Life in the Fast Lane" wouldn't exactly qualify, but the Eagles
definitely made quite a bit of country music.

(By the way, Don Henley sings harmony on two songs on Trisha Yearwood's 
new album.)

And add the entire "Desperado" album (well, except for "Out of Control").
Truly a classic, with "Doolin Dalton", "Twenty-One", "Desperado",
"Bitter Creek", etc. I think the group really went downhill when they
picked up Joe Walsh.

One reason for the HIGH price of these LP's is the label; Bear Family.
Bear Family is a label out of Germany that has reissued much of
the GREAT country music of the 40's, 50's and 60's. Music that
the BIG american labels has forgotten or has deemed not
economically worthy (not top 40 country). Bear Family has
rescued much of this music and has reissued it in a respectful
and loving way. We are not talking "Greatest hits of the 50's!
order by midnight tonight! supplies are limited! You also
get blah blah blah", Bear Family always produces fine products.
Original and supplemental liner notes, pictures, etc.

I recommend "Jazz From the Hills". It's amazing what these
country dudes can do with swing and jazz standard material.
HOT HOT HOT.

Trace, This message really made me chuckle.  I assume you meant "wax
romantic."  When I was a grad student at UT Austin, I used to get into
arguments with my good Texas buddies about whether I was a Yankee or not.
I maintain that I'm not, because I'm from Utah, and at the time of the
civil war, Utah wasn't even a state (admitted in 1896).  In fact, Utah had
its own war against the US while the civil war was going on.  The US
government sent an army under the command of Col. Alber Sydney Johnston to
keep the Mormons in check.  There were no battles, just an uncomfortable
tension with the army on the hill at Fort Douglas, watching for treasonous
conduct.

But my native Texan buddies claimed that I was as much a yankee as if I'd
been born and raised in New York.  But then these guys claimed that anyone
outside of Texas was a Yankee.  Cajuns are Yankees to them.  Hardliners!

When you say "south west" I assume something west of Texas.  New Mexico
(and Arizona, to some extent) has a completely unique history compared to
the rest of the US, including the Old South.  If you're from NM, then your
lack of affection for the confederate flag is probably inbred.  Certainly
it's not treasonous.

Now, if you would please explain what you mean by "arctic fans of country."
Are they the folks who live north of the 60th parallel?

Now, to make this post topical: For *hot* western swing, hunt up my old
buddies Shelly and Kelly in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  Bud Issacs winters up
there and plays with them.  Even Johnny Gimble has been known to play a few
licks with these guys.  Plus, you can ski!

I've always been under the impression that Willie wrote some of his best stuff
and sold the rights away in his struggling years.  I know he wrote "Crazy", a

What about Shel Silverstein, author of childrens' books and such great
country classics as "Queen of the Silver Dollar" and "Marie Laveau" (this
latter from an album by Bobby Bare called "Lullabies, Legends and Lies,"
all songs by SS--a *great* recording if you're into lyrics).  Surely he would have a kids' music recording?

I once read a definition of a "yankee" that went something like this:

...To the rest of the world, it is anyone from the U.S.A.
...To U.S. Southerners, it is anyone not from the South but particularly those 
from the North.
...To U.S. Northerers, it is anyone from New England
...To New Englanders, it is anyone from [sorry, I can't remember which New 
England state]
...To people from [that state], it is anyone from the rural parts of the 
state.
...To these rural people, it is anyone who doesn't have indoor plumbing.

I don't remember where I read this, so my appologies to whoever originated it 
for not giving you credit.  My appologies, too, to any "yankee" who may be 
offended.  But it does kinda show what a relative term "yankee" can be, 
doesn't it?

Yeah, that is "She Took It Like A Man" by Confederate Railroad.  It is on

I recall somebody saying about a month ago that Alan Jackson's new
CD "A LOT ABOUT LIVIN'" was as good or better than "HERE IN THE
REAL WORLD" and "DON'T ROCK THE JUKEBOX" . On the contary, (in my 
opinion) , it can't hold a candle to his first two CDs. Although it
is not a 'bad' CD it definitely can't compare to the two previous
masterpieces. "A LOT ABOUT LIVIN'" is about as original as a loaf
of bread. I mean, theres nothing new, nothing revolutionary. I think
theres a couple of songs (eg Tropical Depression) which are just 
fillers. The only song that would have been released as a single if
it were on the other albums is "She's got the rhythm". It's the only
song that can compare to "Midnight in Montgomery, Wanted, Dallas, 
Blue Blooded Woman" just to name a few. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big
A J fan and I hope this album grows on me, but come on, wake up and
smell the coffee. It's not his best work.

Right, who can forget that Nashville classic "Hotel California?"

Bing Crosby once put out an album of cowboy songs called "Don't
Fence Me In."  I guess that makes him the Marty Robbins of the 1940's.

Waiting with thirsty ear for the ultimate country collaberation, the
