The Music Thread: Stilleto Crocs And Country Music?
Patsy Cline! Wow...what a voice. Talk about emotive!
Crazy
Roy Acuff's The Wabash Cannonball. Heh...my dad used to sing this!
Glen Campbell's version of Rose Garden is solid, and was quite successful. But...Lynn Anderson's version is great! I already used it on the ONT last week, so I am violating my self-imposed rule: no repeats unless I forget! Here it is.
I love Loretta Lynn's voice, with that echoey feeling to it. And here is her most famous song! Coal Miner's Daughter
The Stanley Brothers? Who are they? Pure American bluegrass.
Man of Constant Sorrow
The boundaries between the genres are a black box for me. I have no idea how they work, and I'll cross them at will without even knowing. That's the fun of music though...one song leads to another and another and pretty soon you have gone from 1930s Bluegrass to 19th century opera, and then back to 1950s pop and 1960 soul and 1970s super groups and finally to playing Beethoven's 5th...backwards!

Re: Stanley Brothers
There are so many unknown songs, even by people who like the genre. One of my favorites is I am the Man, Thomas. It's Jesus speaking to Thomas after he'd appeared to the disciples.
I am the man, Thomas.
I am the man.

there's an interesting song by John Ritter called "Curse." One of the lines is about pyramids:
"think of them as an immense invitation."
It's a really great and subtle song. Well worth a listen, but you've got to listen to the end to catch what happens. The video takes away from how wonderful the song is so I'm linking a live version. If you choose the music video (it's distracting) don't watch it. Just listen to the words.

Weekends tend to be a bit electic on it (Celtic, various New Orleans, other forms of odd music) but it's mostly a Bluegrass station. Sunday mornings are the best. Stained Glass Bluegrass!! 4 hours of sheer Gospel beauty!

Saw Rush live 3 times. Pert was mind boggling . Lee's voice and bass work was awesome. Lifeson is a seriously underappreciated guitarist, but...but Zep rules! Saw them live in the Kingdom in 76. Dang near 4 hours of amazing . Bonham and Jones had this uncanny connection . Page was beyond description. Robert Plant's voice and stage presence is second to none . Greatest is in the ear of the listner

At its core, it's a fusion of the southern gospel choir tradition and bluegrass, which is itself a uniquely American style descended from the Scots-Irish immigration into the Southern states.
After that fusion was done, this dude named Elvis Presley added some flavor from the black full-gospel church and a touch of what was then the burgeoning sound of rock 'n' roll, and here we are.
Yes today most of it is boring and formulaic, but there are some excellent country artists to be found.

Holy crap, thanks for mentioning them. I posted this a couple of weeks ago, but if folks have never heard the Will the Circle Be Unbroken album, they need to listen and buy it. Because if you listen you'll buy it.
There are a few people you might have heard of performing on the album. Cash, Acuff, Skaggs, Prine, Emmylou, Bela Fleck, Atkins, and who knows how many others. There are neat audio captures between tracks of people meeting for the first time and casually chatting.
What an incredible album.

One of my favorite memories was seeing Doc Watson in Raleigh, NC back in the early 90s. He was playing at what I think was an old movie house, and all of the crappy (but neat) old wooden seats were facing up to look at a screen, and we were in the balcony. And even our seats were facing up. So we couldn't see him even though he was sitting smack dab in the middle of the stage.
I told my girlfriend at the time "Now we're even."

Had a great math teacher in high school for Calculus & then Computer Science; hung out with him after class one day, and he played some country music tunes. The first one, that had me laughing so hard I nearly peed my pants, was Johnny Paycheck's "Colorado Kool-Aid."
[As an aside, was so enamored of Don Felder's brilliant "Mexican Reggae" chord arpeggio for Hotel California, that when I taught myself guitar a couple decades ago -- I refused to learn any other song until I mastered that. Anyway, I've recently discovered that it wasn't a unique chord progression: it had been done earlier in a Jethro Tull song "We Used To Know" -- and subsequently, in the Charlie Daniels Band song "Reflections".]

And in that train of thought, Steve Miller moved from Texas to Chicago to learn the blues and his buddy Boz Scaggs split for L.A. iirc

I've been listening to Lord Huron on YTube. Never heard of them until I started searching for the song that played at the end of the series finale of Longmire. They have a dreamy, Western sound going for them.

>>Zep is probably top 3 of all time.
I had a great time listening to albums 1-4 on my last road trip.
Just by sales they are top three.
As was said by someone else, if they are being played I would listen to them but I really have never sought them out.
It's just something about their overall aesthetic that's slightly off putting and has never really appealed to me.

My grandparents on my Dad's side were country folk, and Hee Haw, as well as the Opry were always in play.
My Dad tended more towards the slicker, Chet Atkins sound of Nashville...that and Gospel.
Me, being a snot nosed kid at the time, turned up my nose at all of that.
By the time I opened my ears, and my heart...my Dad died in '76, and I never got to explore the music he loved with him.

Chicago was my favorite band before Terry Kath tragically & accidentally shot himself in the head.
After that, it was the Eagles. I liked a lot of the early U2 stuff -- but it's hard to get past Don Henley & Bono being such narcissistic (perhaps what makes them unique?) assholes IRL.

Well, the girls were screaming for The Stones as well, just not as many as for The Beatles.
In fact, girls screamed for pretty much any popular band back in the day, The Kinks, where pretty much every member of the band was ugly as sh*t, had the girls screaming for them.

Couple of problems for them ever making it into a big stage act.
The lead singer is the drummer and there are only two members in the band and the other guy plays the guitar and has to play the pedal board to trigger effects and bass sounds.
So basically they are really busy doing things, which will make for a very boring live show.

There are channels/stations that are Country! with little crossover. They have a lot of appeal to the late teens through 20s population, on up. Some of that 'taste' is a bit more regional. But unless we specifically seek out pure rock or jazz or opera, we'll be subject to mixing of music genre because it's necessity & what sells.
Hang onto your collections!

Zep was very influential on the entertainers pocketbooks. Before them, promoters of concerts took the lions share of revenues. After Zep's manager got done with them it was the other way around, according to stories.

I'd guess it was sometime late in the '50s when the two began to really split. The folk singers stayed pretty much with the traditional music, and the country singers started writing and singing a completely different language.
During the '60s, the folk singers began using their music as a form of protest against Vietnam. They used the old songs and composed new ones.1/2

That was wild! I still dislike the sound of that instrument, tho. Maybe because it's the stereotypical "Japanese" sound I always heard growing up. Or maybe it's just too twangy.

People with no musical knowledge or taste control content and are continually driving quality out.
If they keep control in the future it will be a monotone and your choice will be which note do you choose to hear.

David Reboi interviewing Rick Beato?
I ask because I have a very basic question. Both Reboi and Beato are learned musicians, and students of music.
They both tend to like/appreciate dissonance in their music as opposed to harmony.
For the life of me, I cannot find anything listenable about dissonant music, whether it be Jazz, Modern Orchestral, etc.
Are some people hard wired to like appreciate dissonance while others aren't, or is it a learned trait, or is it an affectation...
Thoughts?

There was an album out back in the 90s of Disney songs by alternative artists. Stay Awake was the name IIRC. I remember Tom Waits doing Heigh Ho and doing it really well. I think it was during his Bone Machine album timeframe.

Beyond that, you had lyrics that were sung to be understood instead of screamed into a microphone; and often well-written lyrics at that. "Beaches of Cheyenne," "Three Wooden Crosses," and (from much earlier) "Fancy" and "Ode to Billie Joe" were all short stories in song.

Are some people hard wired to like appreciate dissonance while others aren't, or is it a learned trait, or is it an affectation...
I'm with you on this one, browndog. Dissonance is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Harmony is what it's all about, for me. I guess that's why I love Motown and other genres that feature vocal harmonies. I don't think it's an affectation. As someone mentioned earlier, people are wired differently with respect to what moves them musically. I see some here absolutely trashing music that I love, and I feel the same way about what some others think is da bomb. I tend to shy away from negatively critiquing music that I don't care a rat's ass about. It serves no constructive purpose. Different strokes, for different folks.

Guy Clark's "Texas, 1947" is a great song. In 1977 or so I ran a "progressive country" show on the local 10K -watt country AM station in Lafayette, and they pretty much let me pick what I wanted to play. The program director told me that my selections were exactly what they were aiming for. Waylon and Willie, of course, but also Guy Clark, Juice Newton and her band Silver Spur, Linda Ronstadt's more country offerings like "Silver Threads and Golden Needles," Timberline, all sorts of good things.

It's more than likely a hardwired attribute rather than a learned thing.
Dissonance only works in musical pieces very briefly and must be brought into consonance or resolution for most people.
People who enjoy dissonant music probably also revere Yoko Ono.

Someone mentioned a best live show above. I've been fortunate to see a LOT of live music, and I won't put anyone at the top. I will say that mid 90s Squirrel Nut Zippers put on an amazing live show, though. They'd play in weird places like warehouses, too. You could just stand right there in front of them.

I was walking through downtown Staunton, Virginia (across the Blue Ridge from Charlottesville) last summer when I heard a VERY familiar voice coming out of the Clocktower Restaurant ("American food", serves drinks 'til 2:00am, large selection of sweet desserts, occasional live music).
It sounded more like Hank Williams I than either Hank Junior or Hank III does. I turned around to check the sign out front: did you know there's a Hank William IV? Sounds just like great-grandpa.

I have one of their CDs! I really like them. But that reminds me of of why I miss record stores like Tower Records in San Francisco. I used to go in every couple of months and spend at least an hour putting on headphones and listening to random albums. I had such an eclectic music collection as a result. I remember discovering Nora Jones’ first album before it had even started getting airplay on the radio.
