It's weird, but while I hate country music, after seeing Walk the Line about 5 times, I've bought a best of CD, and I actually really like it. I think I'll buy some more. I wish I'd grabbed some while I was in the US ( not that I could carry any more in my back pack ). Anyone else have anything totally out of character in thier CD collection ? I have 790 CDs, mostly rock and metal, and in there is Chris Isaak, and now Johnny Cash. Oh, and a few from Bob Dylan, including 'Slow Train Coming', one of my favourite albums.

I just love Knoffler's guitar. I saw this live version of Sultans of Swings which one my friend is got. There is this 7 min solo on gitar. And he played it like it was a walk in the park! Thats guy is something. I hope some of you like Dire Straits. Abhishek

Along the country theme - Hank Williams III (Straight to Hell), Johnny Cash (Live at Folsom, Live at San Quentin) and Hank WIlliams (some "best of" collection). I guess my small jazz collection (mostly Miles Davis and John Coltrane) doesn't fit with the rest of my collection (1100 CDs, mostly rock/metal/punk), although I suppose the far reaches of my prog rock CDs (Mahavishnu Orchestra, Focus, some Santana) are heading towards that area. Oh - and a William Shatner album (Has Been), all of Nick Drake's albums and a Fairport Convention album - I could probably find some more...

I was raised on a diet of Johnny Cash and Kenny Rogers, so I have always had a little country in my blood. When I was kid we once drove from Dublin, Ireland to the South of France, its about a four day solid drive. We forgot to pack music, so we ended up with Johnny Cash, Kenny Rogers and Abba for four days solid, and people wonder why I am a little weird occasionally. So I would suggest you check out Kenny Rogers, if only to share my pain ... Regards Ray "Je Suis Mort De Rire" Blogging @ Keratoconus Watch

I don’t know if this counts, but I have music ranging from Country \ Metal \ Old School Rap & Classical. At this point about all I ever listen to is Country though, but every now and then I have to mix it up. Country, Just about every artist I can find. I really like the older stuff (40’s / 50’s) Outlaw Country (David Allen Cole, Waylon Jennings etc) Metal, just about what ever was popular in the early 90’s Rap, Coolio, 2Pac, Dr Dre, Snoop Dog, Too $hort, and a myriad of others. There is one genre of music I would like to find a greater selection of; I believe its best described as “Irish Folk” music. I have heard “Whiskey in the Jar” in its original form, and wow that’s very cool. I have grown to like music that tells a story of one sort or another and am less impressed with just noise. What is it about Mr. Cash’s music you enjoyed the most? I could probably make a few suggestions for artists along the same line. [edit] just noticed that the "Notify me by e-mail if someone answers this message" check box was default un-checked, what's up with that?[/edit]
I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley: -- modified at 4:45 Wednesday 19th July, 2006

Isn't it David Allen Coe ? Anyhow, you need to check out 'Rebel meets rebel', his album with the guys from Pantera, it's awesome.

I love how it tells a story, and it just plain seems like honest music to me. I love it for the same reasons I love early folk blues like Son House. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog

Generally i am a Rock/Metal fan (specially the 80's stuff) but someone sent me an Eminem CD (Curtain Call) and i am not into rap or any of that stuff but this sh*t is really addictive some good stuff in there.
I dislike feeling at home when i am abroad.

:-O I'm not sure why but every time I type out his name without thinking, I misspell it. Then again I misspell a lot of words. :doh:

Didn’t you write a review about that here in the lounge a few months / weeks ago? Thought the conciseness was it was something along the lines of Southern Rock, which I’m not a huge fan of. I should take the time to find it and listen to it anyway.

Well, that happens to be one the “traits” in country music. There are a lot of artists that tell stories. John Conlee Tom T Hall George Strait Johnny Horton Hank Williams Sr. and Jr. Merle Haggard Toby Keith Trace Adkins (Listening to this right now, Album “Songs About Me”) Allan Jackson A pretty good list of popular Country Musicians American_country_singers[^]

Martina McBride[^] is my only foray into country music. Some of her stuff I love ("Blessed" and "This Ones for the Girls" are personal favourites, but some others are a little too "Good Ole' Boys" for my taste. :-> I'm still a rock chick at heart tho. It was great to see an except of Motorhead performing on The Young Ones on TV last night. :-D Anna :rose: Currently working mostly on: Visual Lint :cool: Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

Mine is mostly rock but I have a Willie Nelson CD and now you mention it I'll look for a Johhny Cash CD as well. Willie is a cool guy and has written some rgeat tunes "Crazy", "Gerogia" and "My heroes have always been cowboys". Elaine (stetson wearing fluffy tigress) The tigress is here :-D

I guess I would be hard put to say what my character is in the music collection. Radio is 99% "Oldies" but most listened to CD's are Andean Nation Celtic Women also frequent are Cider House Rules (movie track) Association Charlotte Church "Yes I know the voices are not real. But they have some pretty good ideas."

While I am not a big fan of his, I was at a private party that he played at several years ago. Watching him work the guitar (from about 8 feet) was incredible. He really can play, not jsut perform like many do. "Yes I know the voices are not real. But they have some pretty good ideas."

Most of my collection is 90s rock, rap, 80s punk, some country, some jazz and some classical. 3 albums are don't really fit. 1. Edith Piaf - The voice of the sparrow 2. Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - Vasos Vacios 3. Monkey Ska - A collection of early Jamacian ska bands. I'm a huge fan of the man in black BTW. I never suspected Trent Reznor was a decent songwriter until I heard Johnny Cash cover one of his songs. [another edit] I get really bored listening to it, but a friend of mine in college got me into going out and dancing to industrial and goth music. :-O [/another edit]

My brother just grabbed a random CD out of a bin at a record store and bought it. Later on El Matador was on the Grosse Point Blank soundtrack.

That's why none of the Argentinians I've asked about them have ever heard of them. I saw them play once when they toured the USA. It was a great show.
