Garth’s Not Counting You is never played so it must be underrated

Dwight Yoakum-Rapid City, South Dakota
Gram Parsons version of Sing Me Back Home
also anything off of The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's Will the Circle be Unbroken album. It's easily one of the ten most influential albums in the history of country music and I have never heard one song from it played on a country radio station ever.

Sidewalk, if you really want to hear some great classic country listen to these albums.

Jerry Lee Lewis sings Hall of Fame Country Hits Vol 2

He cut them right after his country comeback and his vocals and piano playing are incredible.

Yep. And I've stated this on here before, but if that were sung by someone more famous, it'd be known as the greatest county song of all time. IMO

Ain’t no God in Mexico

Black Rose

Waylon’s Honkey Tonk Heroes is the greatest country albums of all time for my money. Although it is now highly regarded by critics for its influence, it is still underrated. It’s a desert island type album for me.

Waylon is the GOAT.
