Classic country

The first commercial recording of what can be considered country music was “Sallie Gooden” by fiddlist A.C. (Eck) Robertson in 1922 for Victor Records. Columbia Records began issuing records with “hillbilly” music (series 15000D “Old Familiar Tunes”) as early as 1924. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: Dave Dudley

Weird seeing a classic country tag with more than a good number of modern country artists in it. Anything 80s and onward is regrettably a far cry from being classic country music.

you misspelled "uzi" [2] I EXTREMELY dislike modern country music, but the classic stuff has much more soul. All the country singers sing about drinking, dancing, partying, and other random bullshit. Where is the feeling Trace Adkins? Not with you.

If Hank Williams were alive today, he'd probably shoot Taylor Swift. And Lady Antebellum. And Carrie Underwood. And Rascal Flatts. With an oozie.
