Chet Atkins "Sweet Georgia Brown"

[athruz09ful]

trying to reach the pop market and the 'country' market is the name of the game now ....more money. most of the songs are just silly stories but thats what we have come to folks sad to say country isnt country anymore not in the true sense or pure country music

Great picking as always. Thanks alot.

It's hard to believe there was actually a time when country music had melodic elements and more than 2 and a half chords instead of just big dumb looking belt buckles trying to vocalize through their noses.

@KEMPROTH Excellent point!

[ZaftigWoman]

@KEMPROTH Exactly! All reasons why I can no longer listen to country music without being sick!

[daffydoug]

@ZaftigWoman They used to play it at work, and to me it seems like any more it's nothing but farm boys trying to sing.

The days of Porter Wagoner and the spangled suits are apparently long over,

@WhistlersBrother

And, don't forget he came in second on "American Idol"! Second to the winner who didn't stay on that diet..

[daffydoug]

Me too! Great childhood memories. I even met meadowlark once. He came to our church as a guest speaker.
