So what everyone is saying is that a country that is roughly 10x smaller than us and respectively has 10x less the population than America, who took OUR music, put their own spin on it, one might even say improved it only marginally competes with the US in music quality and proliferation?
I think when you put things in perspective The UK mops the floor w/ the US! The genre's of music that the UK doesn't excell at are the genre's that they don't really have the cultural foundation for: hip-hop, jazz, and country. Why in the hell would a Brit wanna' produce a country album? They don't wan't the sheep over there to be any more frightened than they already are!
