Happy that Loretta Lynn is still with us... She's a year older than me...
I'm still getting over the loss (in 2012) of the greatest lady country singer of them all... Kitty Wells (Ellen Deason)
Gone (from the radio waves) are the real woman country singers like:
- Kitty Wells
- Tammy Winette
- Loretta Lynn
- Tanya Tucker
- (Just to name my version of the top four)
It's been many years since country singing was anything other than disguised pop music, IMHO...
OTOH, I've found that "blue grass" seems to have held steady...
