Merle Haggard said about “New Country”:
“I can’t say anything good about it. I wish I could. But I can’t.”
Nashville sound started downhill for me when Garth Brooks & his plastic hat became the norm.
I was dragged to Grand Ole Opry once. All I can remember is the earsplitting volume & thinking that not even North Korea could invent such torture.
So faggies have hijacked the CMA with their usual snarly intolerance?
I’ll stick with bluegrass gospel where there are no amplifiers & the Lord is praised in words I can understand.
Merle Haggard definitely sold out to the left before he passed. He visibly supported left wing causes as did other big name classic country artists of yesteryear. The left has hijacked the entire entertainment industry, and if you want work, you better say the right things.
