Don’t you know, in our post-obama society those guys are too white.

It seemed that a country music station could be pulled in even on a near dead battery.

I have XM as well and at best listen to handful of channels. Typically OTR on 148 and Yacht Rock are my top picks.

OTR and some audiobooks on disc will go on long trips.

Danny and the Juniors said it in 1958.

It’s in the mall too. Compared to this nasty audio assault, even the cheesiest country music seems the product of an advanced civilization.

>>All I hear when “Hip Hop” is blaring is the sound of young angry African Americans yelling scary crap.<<

“Hip Hop” = “cRap” = “kill Whitey.”

Period.

Hip hop is nothing more than jungle “music” with lyrics.

Not to mention you will hear the N-word in every song like a trademark.

Where did you obtain the incidental music for Wild Wild West?

To your point, there’s bands from 70’s and 80’s still touring today - doubt you’ll see that from these CRap artists.

Hip-hop artists can't rest on this, though—HuffPo also notes that their current dominance "was helped by the release of more than a few dominant albums between January and June, like Drake’s 'More Life,' Migos’ 'Culture,' Future’s 'Future' and Kendrick Lamar’s 'Damn.'"

Dumb article. A few hit hip hop albums released over a six month period do not a trend make.

I did my own study, and did you know that basketball and baseball have overtaken football as the most watched sport in the USA? Yep, more people attended basketball and baseball games, or watched them on TV, than football games during the first six months of 2017.

This outfit, La-La Land Records.

http://www.lalalandrecords.com/Site/WildWildWest.html

If WWW can get a release, maybe some others on the wish list might happen.

Ones that I would love the incidental music l to have would be Rockford, Ironside, and Streets Of San Francisco.
