I like country, but I rarely listen to the radio so I may be an oldie...

Don't care much for country/rock, country/pop or the uber-patriotic country music that dominates the genre today.

I like the older country music grounded in folk music and bluegrass. Here's some more recent along that style of country/folk music.

I know what you mean. I grew listening to George Jones, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Cash, Campbell, Waylon Jennings, etc. I can't say I hated but definitely stopped listening to it when I was introduced to Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Zappa and then came Metallica and the grunge scene.

Gravitated back to folk based music because......I don't know. Beyond sounding like a snob it's just better lyrically. I still like the development of music among more modern styles but lyrically there is no match for me.

It is interesting that so many people don't really like Country Music but there are the odd tunes they like. As I have got older I find I love it now! It is really simple stuff (mostly) and I have even made the trip to Nashville to the festival there.

I am from Australia and I have a website called its *edit* which covers all things country, ute musters, dances etc. We have some video clips and I'm always looking for more!

I hope to be back again to the festival next year!! I have to say that I love many different types of music, especially blues and jazz.

Drop into the site and let me know what you think, suggest a link or two for your Aussie pals!
