You know what’s kinda funny to me, how people say they hate or dislike country music because it’s only about a guy losing a girlfriend or wife and drinking his sorrows away.

But if you listen to some of the older songs it’s more than that. They tell stories about soldiers who didn’t make it, missing an opportunity, a baby being born and how they changed the parents’ lives, mental health, abuse, death, the way your view on love changes as you age, disabilities, battles, how the good book can help you find a higher power, ghosts.

The people who are saying that they don’t like country music are probably only listening to the newer artists, not taking the time to go back and see the older generation and hear the stories they have to tell.

If you’re interested I can add a few songs to listen to! 🥰🤟🏻

about the artist eighteen-year-old ronnie self is one of the youngest stars to share the spotlight on the popular touring "philip morris country music show," which also includes such country music veterans as carl smith, red sovine, goldie hill, and gordon terry. as one of the newest candidates for stardom, ronnie has already established a solid foothold towards a successtul career with his fast-moving columbia record of "ain't i'm a dog." it wasn't always thus. at the age of 7, ronnie made an attempt at songwriting. it didn't come off. eight years later, he auditioned for radio. the comment: "too weird." ronnie kept plugging and now, hundreds more rock n' roll fans every day are glad he did.

“Colorado Cool-Aid”

From Johnny Paycheck’s 1977 album Take This Job And Shove It. This album hit Number Two while the famous title track (written by David Allan Coe) was his sole number-one hit. This song, originally cut by Red Sovine (”Teddy Bear”) hit 50. Way things used to be, you couldn’t get Coors beer east of the Mississippi River. This is also the basis for Smokey & The Bandit so Coors was a big deal in the late ‘70s.
