June 10, 200818 yr Loretta Lynn The Government Cheese My Morning Jacket Dwight Yoakum I knew MMJ would be right up your alley. There is a band that I like called Foxy Shazam that might be from Campbell County, but there website says they are from Cincinnati. I haven't been able to get any legitimate evidence they are from KY but I heard it.
June 10, 200818 yr Chris Knight is the man. I do enjoy Chris Knight as well...not many know of him...but he is good.
June 10, 200818 yr Author I do enjoy Chris Knight as well...not many know of him...but he is good. 'It Ain't Easy Bein' Me' is one of my favorite songs to listen to...:thumb: Also, not a Ky guy but Charlie Robinson's song, 'My Hometown' is also a fav. of mine. I dont know, it just seems like those 2 songs have a connection with each other. Edited June 10, 200818 yr by ScarHeel
June 10, 200818 yr http://www.jdcrowe.net/about.htm JD Crowe:thumb: Keith Whitley Ricky Skaggs A great timeless track from J. D. Crowe's 1978 album "My Home Ain't In the Hall of Fame," his first album to feature his new lead vocalist, a young up-and-coming bluegrass singer and former member of Ralph Stanley's Clinch Mountain Boys by the name of Keith Whitley. When Keith joined the New South, J. D. took their sound in a whole new direction and, one can safely say, as a result, created a whole new genre of music which came to be known as "newgrass," which is characterized by being too country for country but too progressive for straight-ahead bluegrass.

June 12, 200818 yr 1. Goose Creek Symphony - founder Charlie Gearhart is from Goose Creek, in Floyd County. 2. Tom T. Hall - Old Dogs and Children and Watermellon wine. What's not to love? 3. Keith Whitley - Just great. 4. Bill Monroe - How many people can you identify that founded a genre of music. 5. Rickey Skaggs - Picked up where Bill left off and took it to a new level. 6. Gary Stewart - One of the best honkey-tonk country singers. 7. The Judds. - You can't forget how sweet their harmonies were. 8. Loretta Lynn - For many years she was the female voice of country music. 9. Patty Loveless - An even better voice and some excellent songs. 10. J.D. Crow and the New South - Bridged the gap to modern Bluegrass.

June 12, 200818 yr Author Really? I've spelled it wrong for 30 years. Not that I've written the word much. Well I mean you can but not on this site, lol. It's considered a racial slur I'm guessing.
