Pat Green's latest stuff is not that good. He is slowly getting pulled into that Nashville pop crap

Cory Morrow, Ed Burleson, Max Stallings, Mark David Manders, Gary P Nunn, Jerry Jeff......yeah....that is the good stuff.

On the righ hand side...scroll down and click on the picture of the Ed Burleson CD. It should play the songs off of his latest.



"pure, traditional country music"

- Tom Geddie, No Depression



"(Burleson is) hard country in the old style of ... Buck Owens, Ray Price (and) Johnny Bush."

- Chris Morris, Billboard



"Ed Burleson may be too country for Nashville, but not for Texas"

- Rob Patterson, Dallas Observer

Burleson is the genuine hard stuff. A former rodeo cowboy, The Texan singer serves up uncut honky-tonk reverie about the untamed life, along with regrets in jealousy and bad choices made. With tips of the Stetson to Hank and Buck, of Cajun fiddle here and pumped-70 pedal steel there, Burleson's songs hark a prehomogenized era when country music could actually sound dangerous, but sweet. --

I agree about Pat Green. Once they tried to make him main stream his music suffered big time. I have told my wife as much. There is a lot of good Texas country but my mind went blank as I tried to list them. I will check your link asap.

I like a lot of his patriotic songs but why on earth is he a Democrat?

Toby last night playing in Baghdad for our troops, sent by satellite to the awards show. He played a song from his new cd.

"In this photo provided by the USO, country music star Toby Keith, right, plays with Scotty Emerick, left, during a United Service Organizations (USO) performance at Camp Victory in Baghdad, Iraq for U.S. troops, Tuesday, May 17, 2005."

Another concert, at Mosul.:

After reading Zell Miller's book, I realized I'm a Zell Miller Dem -- at least philosophically. 'course I've been register R since RWR and I have no plans on voting D.

Political parties, however, are not a religion and I'd have no problem changing to something other than R.
