sambear has been listening to country music while in the car lately. I’ve found this a bit hard to fit into my “mental Sam.” While he really likes Mike Rayburn, he hasn’t listened to one of his early CDs but once because “it’s too country.”
Anyway, I usually change the station immediately, but I didn’t today.
Pure glurge like Help Pour Out the Rain, I could stand to avoid. Forever. But right after that, the station played Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy.
I had to smile when I heard a remake of Hey, Good Lookin’. I associate that song with good memories from my childhood. (I don’t see a need for a remake, though.)
After I started paying more attention, I’d say that I might want to hear about 25% of the songs again. Not quite enough to listen to such a station, but enough to pay a little more attention to what’s going on in the genre.
