[ozman]

The possum... George Jones. :cool:

[mrs.draker]

My favs are Garth and Shania!!!! :beer:

[ozman]

Tc I have never head of the (The possum) What are they like as a groupe.;)

[Songbird]

Mine would definitely have to be George Straight.

[jasperbjj]

They guy who sings that song I'm trying to find out about (almost home or something)

[JD]

Mine would be Chris LeDeux or George Strait

[railroader]

Box Car Willie WHOO WHOO ;) Flatt and Scruggs

[countryfan2002]

Mine is none other that Cledus T Judd! WoOoOoo HoOoOOOO!!!

[Miss Missy]

Mine would have to be Willie Nelson or Merle Haggard! For all time greatness that is!

[Bonnie]

My Favourite artist has always been Laurie Allen for many years, Laurie has the best country songs ever and hopefully his music will continue for many years to come..... Bonnie

[Brett677]

Montgomery Gentry for me. :)

[royryan1]

I've been a fan of country music for close to 40 years now, and my favorite country singer has always been and still is Loretta Lynn. Not many artists still make real country music and real country songs anymore, but Loretta has never wavered, and her "Still Country" album from 2000 is as country as "Loretta Lynn Sings" from 1963. From the sounds of it, her album "Still Woman Enough" to be released this year will be as country as any.

For me, Loretta epitomizes country music at its best. There has never been a singer who could impart so much sincere emotion and personality into her songs. The LADY sings from the depths of her heart, with a sincerity and a realism that only one who as been there can put across. Her songs are real and personal, and meant for those who are already her fans, rather than marketed in an attempt to gain new fans. This outstanding woman has always danced with the ones that brought her.

I've heard a lot of people say "things change", and that "change is inevitable", but I thank God that Loretta hasn't changed, as its impossible for me to imagine her being able to change for the better, either personally or artistically. Loretta has always been proud of being what I am, and that is country. The way she has chosen to reveal the details of her life, the bad parts along with the good, enables her fans to know her on a more personal level than is possible with other artists, especially those of today, who on the whole, are merely manufactured images. Country music is REAL, SINCERE and PERSONAL. When an artist or record label loses sight of these three things, they are no longer country, regardless of the instrumentation.


There is something in Loretta's voice that strikes a chord in my soul. There has never been an artist like her, and I doubt there ever will be again.

[Bonnie]

For a non Aussie artist I think Ernie Ashworth is still sounding good.....Bonnie:sing:

[Songbird]

George Strait and Martina McBride.

[bayouboy]

George Jones--for sure---BB

[porky398]

Apparently I'm a little out of date, Got Toby Keith here

[TC]

Welcome Porky398, make yourself at home. ;)

[porky398]

I'll see what I can do thank Jdog for the Invite:D

[jdog94]

glad you made it piggy

[SunnyC]

Her name was VIRGINIA PATTERSON HENSLEY. The world remembers her as PATSY CLINE.

My all time favorite song: Crazy
By Patsy Cline

[songwriterscott]

MERLE HAGGARD AND KEITH WHITLEY NO QUESTION ABOUT IT!!!

[TC]

Great choices SWS. ;)

Welcome to the forum. :beer:

[jasperbjj]

I have an incredible amount of respect for artists who write their own music. Alan Jackson writes quite a bit of his own music and is a very talented man. My hat is definately off to him and the rest of the legitimate country music songwriters/singers.

[midtownmic1987]

MY favorite is Tim McGraw! He's SUCH a hottie!!
Micah:cool:

[Mr_Thick]

Alan Jackson here!

[TC]

Welcome to the forum Mr T :beer:

[marlborogal]

George Strait and Faith Hill

[AndrewK]

Garth.

Liking Chris Ledoux and Gordon Lightfoot more every day though :)

[J.W.]

For me, the classics would be a toss-up between George Jones, Johnny Cash, and Merle Haggard, with Brad Paisley, Mandy Barnett, and Alan Jackson fighting it out for top "newer" country artists.

And in response to the "how are (the possum) as a groupe" person above, The Possum is George Jones. And he's great as a groupe.

[damisell]

Mine would have to be Garth Brooks

[CountryMusikMan]

George Strait and The Guy who sings" Almost Home" Jasper is Craig Morgan

[tejano]

Gene Watson, Waylon, Willie, Ed Bruce and the other real ones that weren't a packaged product manufactured by the industry.

[jen]

My favorite male country singer is Keith Urban, and my favorite female country singer is Sara Evans. She has such a beautiful voice.

By the way, I'm new here and didn't know where else to introduce myself. I found this forum through Google. I work for Country Line Magazine in Austin, Texas. Check us out on the web, and join our forums at www.countrylinemagazine.com!

[TC]

We're glad to have you here, looks like a great site. I will add countrylinemagazine.com to our links.

George Jones

Welcome Jen :beer: :D

[Penquin]

Nice to see you here Jen. Enjoy your stay.:)

[r-b-a]

I guess i must be out of touch with the new country, my favorites start with Kitty Wells the original queen of country music. From there Marty Robins, Hank Snow, Jim Reeves, Johney Cash, the Statler Bros. Patsy Cline, Jim Ed Brown ( who could forget the old lamplighter ). No one sings How Great Thou Are like the Statlers.

[Loch Doun]

Hi i'm Bryan, i'm new to this messageboard and I think it's just great! There aren't too many country fans here in MA, and only one country music radio station, lol.

Anyway, my favorite country star is Kenny Chesney.

[TC]

Welcome to the forum Bryan, we're glad to have you here. I guess most people in MA don't have good taste in music like you do. ;)

Welcome aboard and make yourself at home. :beer:
