I remember the same singers add Hank Williams SR, Grandpa Jones, Mini Pearl, and Johnny Horton, to the list. I'm only 54. I've never heard the Blixie Chickens sing, this modern "country ROCK" just not to my taste. I perfer Blue Grass.

I'm mid-30's, and this is the ONLY country music I'll listen to. Add to this list Bob Wills and Hank Williams. You might look into putting one of younger fiddler Alvin Crow's CD's on your Christmas list.

FReepers who are interested in hearing GOOD country music and paying tribute to a musical pioneer should make the trek to Turkey, Texas this weekend for the annual Bob Wills Days there.

You're in good company! This morning on Fox and Friends, Henry Kissinger was asked what he thought about the Dixie Chicks, and he said he didn't know who they were.

After being informed of the situation, he said, "They should be ashamed of themselves."
