When country stations went woke and felt like that have to play as many women singers as men. Most of them are unbearable to listen to.

Each show you watch they/he plays and sings songs different (sped up, slowed down, annunciating parts different).
Waylon was a man. You can call him he.

Such disrespect for Willie.

When country singers sent liberal, it was the beginning of the end.

You’re honestly a little late on this. Some of the new guys are really good IMO and are bringing country back to some good places.

Just heard Nobody in his right mind by George Strait. What a banger. They followed it up with some hot garbage from Georgia Florida line or whatever the frick.

I recently watched the Ken Burns Country Music Documentary. I think the documentary made mention the Telecommunications Act of 1996 that led to a wave of radio station mergers. This meant that there was less variety of artist that would make their break on the radio and made a lot of regional country scenes get squashed and make all the gatekeepers run through a few people in Nashville.
In essence you won't get folks like the Kershaw brothers from South Louisiana to be played on country radio unless their music sounds like Luke Bryan. Any regional Americana influences like Zydeco are a no-go in contemporary country radio. If you are able to come up through a country sub-genre like the Texas Country/Red Dirt scene then you can have more artistic license to have an orginal sound.

This and Mutt Lange. His brought his shitty Def Leppard production crap to her stuff and there you go. If she didn't have great cans and looked like Lulu from Hee Haw, no one would've paid attention to it

About the same time everthing else went to shite.

I don't remember the year, but the first time I heard deanna carter's bloodletting "dance" song, I've never tuned in a modern country channel. On Pandora, 60's 70's and 80's country. Give me a Ray Price/ Conway tune any day. That and the Ennio Morricone channel for the great western themes.

Stop listening to the radio and actually dig into country music today... There are some really good artists turning country around in a very good way.

Try Creed Fisher if you like Hank Jr.
