We got both kinds: Country *and* Western

Always and Forever (Randy Travis): Yep, there's some country on my iPod. And I'm in Texas today! A lot of the country I have is from around this period (late '80s to early '90s) - guys like Dwight Yoakam, Randy Travis, Clint Black. Back then there was a renaissance of sorts in country music, kind of a back to basics movement. Which reminds me, I don't have any George Jones albums. You may read about one soon. Anyway, Randy is one heck of a singer. With a range to rival George's, and a similar ability to make you believe it was his dog what died, his wife that done run off, an so on. Man, why does so much of my music make me want to drink? I could use a cold one right about now. Back to music bringing back memories, this brings back one particularly vivid one: The Yellow Rose, and Kip Sonnier. Well, that, and Donnie singing Always & Forever to Dana (his, not mine) at their wedding reception.
