Please share your suggestions on and anecdotes on "Real" Country music when it
regains what is being lost to marketing and the fickle $$-only direction. I mean, how long can this "New Country", already dead sounding horse be flogged before the futile effort yields the next discarded trend?
I hold that the REAL THING will survive and
regain its greatness. What do you think will help it come to pass?

One thing I noticed when recently hearing a wonderful "Country Standard Time" classics radio show:
>
Lose the drum machines. Compared to the tone of the older songs, they sound like a horde of mousetraps going off all over the place, in tooooo-perfect time, blurring the overall sound annoyingly.
Would someone enlighten me on how this production "value" crept in? Every song in the classics program had a great, appropriate drum part that supported the song rather than
relentlessly blasting it in your face. |

I too enjoy a less produced sound...
both in rock music and country. |
