Eric Clapton- Lay Down Sally
De La ft MF Doom- Rock CoKane flow
more depending on whatever strikes me
RoyalDiva- I know how you feel. Johnny Cash is one of my all time favs, and there are a lot of country artists out there who are really good. Neko Case of the New Pornographers has some great solo stuff. But I don't think I'll get to the point of listening to popular modern country stuff, it all just sounds like really bad pop sang with a southern accent to me. Doesn't stick to any sort of country sound, at least not in any significant way that I perceive.
Now: MF Grimm and MF Doom- WWIII
