Amy Winehouse had soul.

wasted talent. Watch the doc about her on Netflix. It's sad

I never grew up listening to country. When you’re an Army brat, even though you live in the South, you might not be Southern.

But for some reason, I started listening to country in the early nineties, when my kids were in elementary school. I think the first one that got me was “Bubba Shot the Jukebox”, and I was laughing so hard that I almost put my car into the ditch alongside Neubert Springs Road.

Joe Diffie, Mark Chesnutt, Jo Dee Messina, Clint Black, Collin Raye, Kathy Mattea, Randy Travis, Junior Brown...

For a while there, country songs had a story to tell, and they were often pretty damn funny with it.

I’ve given up on country now. Americana stations keep me going.

don't give up on country. Give up on the Nashville sound. It's awful

My dad produced mark chestnuts first album on chrysllis records. I was a little kid. He’d rub my head and call me rugrat all the time. Cool story years later I was at opryland with my wife then girlfriend waiting in line at the sky coaster when I here “ hey rugrat your all grown up now” I turn around there’s mark. Talk about a cool date

Well, I look over 40, so there’s that.

Let us be the judge of that. Post another pic.

There's still country songs being performed and recorded, even in Nashville. You just have to listen for them. Maybe, when I get around to retiring, I'll look to DJ a country music program like I did in 1980.

1/3 gin 2/3 limeade.

Back when I was a drinker, that would have been 2/3 gin, 1/3 limeade.

They’re the ones I find on Americana and similar format stations.

Along with our Cali jazz station (KCSM-FM), we stream WNCW, WDVX, and lately WMOT Roots Radio, the formerly-jazz public radio station out of Murf.

WMOT plays a lot of up and coming non-rhinestone-cowboy country music plus some classic old-school country. It’s like having the Bluebird Cafe streaming into your place.

My only quibble with them is that they do NOT keep their you-just-heard playlist updated worth a damn, so if you miss the announcement of the last three songs, you’ve no idea what you heard.

We’ve only been there once, but it was absolutely amazing.

Here’s a picture of my mask that was given to me. No cracks about my hair, since I haven’t been able to go the beauty shop. I looks like something that grows in the woods.

I keep seeing people out at Family Dollars while I’m doing service on their systems wearing masks covering their mouths but not their nose.

Wow, sad.

Are you protecting yourself, hum? Mother Jenning here.

Social distancing, washing hands.
