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.

Classic country (American original...like Jazz) is nothing
like the Country Music Video Pop.....that many people see
as country music. While great country music has roots and
meaning....as well as heart/class....current pop/country is
the most $$$$ promoted and marketed music in the world...the
"Boyz2Men" of the world cannot, financially, compete with
the money spent on what most people think of as "country
music".... Even Ray Charles (read: Jazz) had country hits..
when country music was about music...not truck pulls.
