yeah, my answer is the same as yours, martin, at least judging from the "amen brother: i was about to give you when you wrote this, which i agree with so much it's not funny:

"where is the required "I don't like modern country, but I like old country" line from the token shithead who can only name two old country artists* when asked what the fuck that means? Cause that's totally my favorite part of any discussion that starts out as a thinly-veiled I Hate Country Rant."

"...maybe you can explain why both Ray Charles and James Brown have cited Little Jimmy Dickens as an influence."

If I was to guess, I would imagine it was because they heard him many times on the Grand Ole Oprey.

That's a good answer, thanks. I personally never like his stuff, he always seems like an annoying novelty act.

Also, mentioning Suds in the Bucket makes you the Hero of this Thread.
So my strategy worked?!? I was afraid I was gonna end up the token S-head.

Cracker's Countrysides is "country" I guess. I just like it is all.
