Old Country Music

Old Country Music - I just love the old style country songs!

Whilst some of the contemporary country stars are doing great songs too, most of the country music that has been produced over the last about 30 years doesn't have the quality of the earlier songs.

Especially newcomers to the scene who have tried to revolutionize the country style don't seem to be able to catch my attention. I stick with the 'oldies' and can't get enough of them! 

Just scroll down and enjoy, many of the Records here have sound samples that you can listen to. 

The names of the greates old country music stars

Hank Williams, George Jones, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Jim Reeves, Ray Price, Charley Pride, Ernest Tubb, Mel Street ...

And the ladies: Loretty Lynn, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Melba Montgomery...

These are my heroes and I still love to hear their songs all day long!
