I Was Raised On Country-Western Music [VIDEOS]
Nowadays when someone says Country-Western Music, some will snicker and out right laugh, then question your age. If you know what I mean you might be old enough to know. My mom used to love putting on an album of her favorite Country-Western artists while she cleaned and because I was a horrible helper (I was a spoiled only child when times were good), I would sit on the couch and read the album cover while she did. As I got to know the song's I would sing along with the artists, to my mom's dismay-of course. (I can't sing)
Here are my Favorites (via my mom):
Barbara Mandrell "Married, but Not to Each Other":
Crystal Gayle "Don't it Make My Brown Eye's Blue"
Dolly Parton "Jolene":
Conway Twitty "Hello, Darlin'":
George Jones and Tammy Wynette "Golden Ring":
I don't know about you, but this was the way it was. These golden voices with the sound of the needle soaring across the vinyl, that little hissing static sound-oh the days! There are quite a few more that I thought of, but the list would be a mile long if I didn't stop now-okay, one more...
