We grazed by this on another thread but these days there really does
not seem to be much old time country music. It has evolved into pop
singers like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. There are a lot of
guys doing things in the vein of the Eagles and other soft rockers
from the 70s and 80s. Then you have guys like Colt Ford who have a hip
hop sound, rapping songs about waving the flag and celebrating rural
living instead of killing cops and abusing women like the original
rappers.
We saw Colt Ford this evening at a free open air concert in Bonita
along with a couple local bands and a "Voice" runner up (Rae Lynn).
The interesting thing is all of my old 60s Motown dance moves still
work with his music. The beat seems to be very similar.
One thing about country is there does seem to be a lot of music in
their music. It has changed from the old "twang and trains and hill
billy thing" (Trace Adkins line).



Wow. Songs about waving the flag and rural living...just wow. I don't
listen to rap, either.

You need to relax and stop taking things so seriously
