I’ve learned that any European will go balls out for a rodeo. Me personally, I like picking and Americana. Also redneck engineering. Wont lie, sometimes im jamming on some folk or old time country music.

Forgive the title, trying not to confused or offend.

    Old-school “outlaw” country music is great. Like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and the like.

      Didn’t Willie Nelson out smoke Snoop Dogg at one point?

      But also, yes, old school country that tried to tell a story and wasn’t just formulaic pandering to rural americans was great.

        Probably. They even did a collaboration song together, “Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die”. Pretty funny hearing Snoop sing a country song.

      I think a lot of pre-1980s country is pretty good. When it did things like tell stories and wasn’t just formulaic crap about god and Jesus and America and your truck and your girlfriend in cutoff jeans.
