My wife and I are working through the 8 part Ken Burns history of country music. We are through six. It has been great. I told my wife, though, that I am finished watching once I see Garth Brooks’ face. He single-handedly ruined country music.
Yes he did.
He single-handedly ruined country music.

Search “Outlaw Country Music” on a music app for station and you will be pleasantly surprised at some of the lesser known artists. There is some great authentic country music there.
Good, authentic music only comes from people who have lived the things they sing about.
Their soul comes through the song.
