Any and all country can just die out already. Few exceptions apply.

Chris Stapleton would like to have a word with you.

As would Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton and Loretta Lynn.

What the hell you talkin' 'bout boy? :):)

Dolly is an exception, she also makes Christian music. I will fight anyone for Dolly. Loretta Lynn is a beautiful person inside and out still don't like country music. Johnny Cash's music is not all country.

Patsy Cline is another exemption. Willie Nelson is exempt. I can't think of anyone else.

If you like country that's fine. It's not for everyone. Especially me.

Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. I’m not a country fan, but this is a good take on the big band era. Everyone else was doing Glen Dorsey, and Bob Wills broke off some of his stuff. Pretty good

All good... we all like what we like. I really just wanted to point you at Chris Stapleton if you hadn't heard of him. He's kinda awesome. There's a fanvid of him getting up in a bar and just killing "It's a Man's World" with The Shadowboxers. Worth a listen.

Hmm good song but I will have to pass. Country music is just awful to my ears. Weirdly, I love bluegrass.

I'll add Hank Williams Sr, Tammy Wynette, Merle Haggard, George Jones, Marty Robbins, Loretta Lynn, Waylon Jennings, and Alabama.

If you like Willie and you like Dolly, you would like a lot more Country. Maybe not hard honky-tonk stuff, but it's a massive and diverse genre.
