C/W music Audiogon members

Are there ANY Agon members that like SOME country/western music besides me? I have fair collections of J. Cash, Emmylou Harris (not purely C/W I know), G. Jones, Merle Haggard, Don Williams, Linda Ronstadt (early especially), the Judds, Hank Williams Jr., and some others. Some of this music is very well recorded, and the voices great/unique. Also, is it true that if you play a C/W CD backwards that (1) the guy's dog comes back to life (2) he gets his pick-up truck back (3) quits drinking, (4) gets out of prison, and (5) gets his woman back :>) BTW, we won't see Albert Porter on THIS thread. Cheers. Craig.

No Cornfedboy, I am from LA. Gothic is little strong word, but their weird coolness does incline towards little Gothicky! They make good music, all the same.

Sorry I'm late to the party. Emmylou has essential records including Cimarron,Wrecking Ball,Evagelene and fantasctic live Last Date album. Can't go too wrong with Willie's Stardust (any version) Patsy Cline's Greatest (the original on Decca) or Rodney Crowell's Diamonds and Dirt. Vinyl only on all.
Think it's time people forget about genre's and labels and just enjoy good music and musicianship. Here's an oddity: for you: Marvin Gaye's Tribute To Nat King Cole on Tamla. Got to be one of Motown's best sounding records in stereo. It's not country but I thought I'd mention it anyway!

Jerry Jeff Walker " Live at Gruene Hall" a true American classic. For something interesting and new in this vein check out Donna the Buffalo, "Positve Friction"
