My bro always post this one when he's a little buzzed off the booze. Good tune

Pigrim Brothers - Nowhere else but here

Warumpi Band - My island home
Bit different to what you guys in the states may be used to but a rather iconic country rock song down under hope you like

Willie Nelson and family is pretty much it. No more magical voice anywhere. Seen him several times. Good guy.

Wonderful talent. There are a lot of great vocalists today but they have to sing a style that sells records. I see it all as cookie cutter. Pretty much the same beat and voice inflections. Not a lot of individuality in todays "country".

I used to hate country music...and then my girl told me about a song that made her think of me every time.

So it aint all bad

It aint bad at all, specially when it gets your girl thinking . Im old school country, been playing and singing classic country and bluegrass since i was 13. Geesh im old .

What is funny to me is i say the original punk rocker was not punk he was Johnny Cash. I grew up on old school country and it is nostalgia for me.

And Johnny Cash will always be the OG punker to me. And that is a big deal. His rendition of hurt gives me the chills every time I hear it.

Yes Johnny Cash was one of the original bad boys of country and did a lot of crossover stuff. He had a lot of blues and soul and could really communicate that thru his music. A lot of famous rock stars credit his influence and help. Just before he died he did a song just him singing and playing piano. I forget the name , cause im stoopid, but its a really powerful, thought provoking piece.

LOL! That was funny. Especially the picture of the fat women smooshing the skinny guy in bed.
