Great country recording

Love it!

O Brother Where Art Thou and Raising Arizona and The Ballad of Buster Scruggs are soundtracks that come to mind.A favourite is Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby Cluck Ol' Hen

Mark Chesnut: “Tradition Lives“, “Savin’ the Honky Tonks”, “Rollin’ with the Flow”

Great contemporary honky tonk. Slim Yamagucihi is one of the world’s greatest peddle steel players, Chesnutt a phenomenal country vocalist.

Townes Van Zandt: Start with “Live at the Old Quarter” and “High, Low and In Between”

In college, I was fortunate to see him many times at the Outhouse in Austin, Tx. It was the mid to late 1980’s. Addiction had taken its toll but he was still magical on stage. Just him and his guitar. I still can’t believe I drank beers with him during his breaks. Crazy.

Nashville Skyline - Bob Dylan backed by some of the best cw side men!

You may want to take a listen to the soundtrack for Oh Brother Where Art Thou?

It's a survey of pre-Nashville country music.

Best,
