Country Music/Expert Profile
Expertise
I am a long time fan of Bluegrass and older country/folk music (20-70's) and have a fairly extensive tape and sheet music library of the same and have played the music non-professionally for many years. I can (hopefully) assist with information about artists and lyrics. Please try to make it the older stuff, I don't listen to much "modern" country except George Strait anymore....it ain't got no soul anymore :)
Experience in the area
I grew up in the 60's listening to all the old greats and learned to play the music. I have spent a lot of time reading about the genres and have gotten a chance to meet several of the big names over the years.

Sometimes use "song" instead of lyrics.

That is the problem with remakes that don't make it big...only the guy/gal with the big hit are remembered...Being that Jimmy Dickens had such a hit with it, it's possible several smaller acts could have
