JUST PLAN OLE COUNTRY

As any country music fan lover knows, this uniquely American music style has its roots in 1920's, Atlanta, Georgia. The beauty of country music and the mass appeal it has hearkened, in many's opinion, is from its emotional honesty and storytelling.

A good country singer doesn't just sing the words, he (or she) FEELS them, and makes the audience feel it too. Through stories and emotion, we learn a little about life, love and ourselves. Here are some beautiful country songs that will lighten your mood and tell you a story. (Author Unknown)

A great list! I was just a kid when a lot of this came out. Just spent an hour on memory lane (h**ed most of this because my folks liked it. I'm more eclectic now
). If I could add a song to the list it would be this. You'll get a kick out of it!

He's turned into a grizzly lookin' ol' bastard, hasn't he? But he still sings as good (in that weird way...sorta like Jagger. Neither are great singers!) as he did when I was in high school.

PS: Don Gibson was my Granny's favorite singer. If I had time I'd go on a YouTube rabbit trail.
