It's a little sad to look back on this. Even then, Country music was dying, but then a legend would get onstage and tear the house down. Now there aren't as many legends still with us and the music has died a little more, but every time one of them steps up to sing, a little spark of what used to be comes back. And just for a moment, nobody cares about Rascal Flatts or Taylor Swift because a REAL country singer just rocked their world.

I agree with all the comments. Thanks Gaylord for screwing up country music....

We don't have any real country music any more.

These people are the last unless George happens

to be seen some place or hear a record on some radio station of one of the older people.

.OR hear one of the people on You Tube Face some one who likes real music.

@jbrentscott Gaylord didn't have anything to do with it, in fact their WSM is one of the few pure country stations left in the US. The music died, and the record producers kept seeing lower and lower sales, and in effect, these "new country" guys have been just that.. a way of expanding on the traditional sounds with a new sound all their own. If it don't sell, you're not going to hear it on radio or at the record stores.
