These types of discussions always wind up making the same point. Modern music sucks and it's true to this group of old farts on this forum it does suck. But that's completely normal. What did our parents think of what was modern country in the 60's? The answer to that is why are there no Gene Autry or Roy Rogers "singing cowboy" with barbershop harmony styles in Biab? Because that was our parents music and WE think that music sucks and so it goes generation after generation.

IMHO, there is nothing wrong with modern music country or otherwise because it wasn't made for us, as Snoop Dogg famously said. Children are genetically programmed to do whatever they can to create music their parents can't stand. When you country pickers were in high school were you all hot to learn Roy Rogers songs? I doubt it. It was about the same as me wanting to listen to Chattanooga Choo Choo when I had Wolfman Jack playing Elvis and Chuck Berry. Did my parents like the Wolfman? Hell no.

Each generation has their own tastes in music and everything else and it's locked in at an early age age.

Haha, actually now that I think about it there probably are some styles that would fit Gene Autry. Anybody want to try this one?



Great song, eh?
