So you like both kinds of music--Country and Western?

I never liked the Hank Snow / Kitty Wells era but when rock degenerated
into absolute crap in the '70s I switched to Willie, Waylon, and David
Allen Coe.  That was a good ride for a while until C&W turned to crap like
Achy Breaky Heart and I moved to alternate country like Guy Clarke, Townes
van Zandt, Lucinda Williams, and Steve Earle. I don't like Spingsteen's
politics but he does write good songs.

I throw in some variety with Concrete Blonde, Drivin N Cryin, Cowboy
Junkies, and until they went the BLM route Driveby Truckers.

Then there is the whole Irish thing with Dropkick Murphys, Black 47,
Flogging Molly, and so forth.

I particularly like the rebel songs; they're inspiring. I play a lot of
them on a Irish flute or whistle.

If you want to dance, use real music not that jittery, nervous, frenetic
synth shit.
