The Jury Is Still Out

I havn't decided whether or not I like country music yet.
All the time up until now it was just something that bothered me. I realize now that there are several sub categories of country music that I never took the time to notice before. My best friend in school and I were strictly against country music. It sucked. It was that simple. There was not a lick of originality, and every song sounds the same. We were of the opinion that you could just put "country" on the album, and it wouldn't matter who the artist was.

I still do not like the country-pop like Shania, or the whiny twangy crapp where all they do is complain or feel sorry for themselves. I am really starting to like Bluegrass though. I was turned on to Allison Krauss and Union Station one morning last winter when I was listening to "Sounds Eclectic" on Public Radio International. Ever since then its been growing on me and wow, me, Joe The Bartender may, just may buy a country album. Not totally sure...more to come.

Baby steps right?
