Yeah, I know, there's good country music to be found in any era if you dig for it a little. But when it comes to the years I mentioned, you usually get a token nod toward Hank Williams, and not much else.

But for many reasons, which I'll go into if this thread occasions any replies at all, this is the era for me. Not only for the songs and the distinctiveness of the various artists, but for the sound on the records.

Again, more to follow if there's any interest at all. I can talk at length on this subject, but will do so only others want to as well.
