Those are some great songs and great sounds!

One album that did get lots of airplay this year that seemed more straight up country was Miranda Lambert's The Weight of These Wings.

I kind of quit listening to most radio country. I found Lambert's album on several best-of lists for 2016 as a more traditional country album and for the most part I would say the lists were right. I certainly didn't expect it from the pop-country scene.

My favorite that just doesn't seem to get the airplay I think he deserves is Junior Brown. Perhaps he's too much old-school rock n roll combined with country?
