iPod sez:

Buddy Miller, Kim Ritchey and Patty Loveless.

 

I know Hank and Jimmy Rogers and etc. are supposed to be the classics, but I can't stand actually listening to 'em.

Lefty Frizelle and Merle Haggard are pretty indespensable as would be Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle.

Absolutely essential, however, to your C&W collection are the two great tear jerkin' truckin' tunes: Phantom 409 and Giddyup Go.

Oh, Yeah...Jerry Jeff Walker

Closeted or not, immoderation in C&W listening will induce vomiting.

is Gordon Lightfoot country? I like him, though the only country cd I actually own is Patsy Cline. For modern country-noir type stuff my votes go to Nicole Steen/Coal and Oh Susannah.

Speaking of Country Dick, I saw the Beat Farmers way back in the day. About midway through the show, CD came out into the audience and sat down on the floor reading aloud from Penthouse Letters by cigarette lighter.

I must second Jerry Jeff. He's right up there with Hank, Willie, and Johnny if not a little underappreciated.
