Country music

Anyone a Charlie Crockett fan?

I’m from Texas where Charlie also hails but got to see him play this week while on a work trip up to Calgary.

He brought the old school, steel guitar Texas cool sound up to Canada and the sold out crowd definitely seemed to enjoy the show!

Whitey Morgan- Fire on the Mountain

I raise you your cover and throw down the original.

This is one of my favorite tunes and favorite bands of all time. It's a shame that great live versions of this tune are not available on social media, but I was there for a bunch of them in real life history.

Album version here, followed by a [sad] live crowd in New Jersey.

Heart-and-soul member, bassist Tommy Caldwell, had passed away the year before the live performance.

Gonna fire up the album version first, for effect ....




Live in New Jersey, without Tommy :unsure:--

 
Don't get me started,,, lol.

At the time, the last couple of albums seemed off-track, but now I appreciate them.

They seemed far from the pinnacle--



 
The King, Toby Keith (RIP), Jason Aldean, older Kenny Chesney are some of my favorites for "classics"

Cody Johnson, Oliver Anthony, Matt Mason are a few newer artists I really enjoy.
 
I like the older stuff...

Johnny Cash
George Jones
Merle Haggard
Roy Clark
Roger Miller
Johnny Rodriguez
Conway Twitty
George Straight
Tammy Wynette

My favorite more contemporary artists are Jamey Johnson and Ryan Bingham.
