Well after many weeks of consideration i have picked a topic for a web page..This page will hit on a few Country Music Artists that i consider my faves...hopefully yall do too :) The Band that ranks Number 1 on my list is Brooks and Dunn they have been my favorite since i heard Boot Scootin Boogie...i have almost all of there albums cept for Hard Workin Man but i intend to get that one very soon....i have been to a few brooks and dunn pages and will have there links...i will also have some info on the Metal Rodeo..something i have found interesting.and would like to compete in hopefully if my girlfriend allows it. My Second Fave would have to be George Strait he is one of the best and a very close second in my book to Brooks and Dunn ok i will call him First in the solo artist Catagory hehe its my page i can do that cant i ? :P well i just did it!! :)
Brooks and Dunn is one of the greatest country dance bands of all time in my opion...was it fate or just coincidence that there song Boot Scootin Boogie came out just as Country Dance was taking off in a big...i think it was fate...but even if it didnt come out then im sure it would not have affected their success to this day i still havent been to one of there concerts :( but hopefully in the near future i will...by the way anyone got any idea how much it would cost to hire them for a wedding :P well enuff of my bickering here is some facts about Brooks and Dunn....Recent they have won the CMA entertainers of the year award on October 2 i think it was not too sure tho if someone could clear this up for me please feel free...i have seen a few nice pictures online of them but havent downloaded them...Their first album released to my knowledge was Brand New Man but im not sure on that if there was one before that i would like to know. i have recently purchased Waitin' on Sundown and just as i expected from brooks and dunn it is an excellent album just like the others i have and i hope to soon have all the lyrics memorized...my dream is to one day meet these legends as i consider them and im sure most others do also...there songs have moved me in many ways which i will not disclose as of yet..but maybe in later pages i will :)
George Strait...Another one of the Country music greats in my opion...tho i havent been listening to him for as long as Brooks and Dunn but i like him just as much for his love songs....Like Check Yes or No...tho i do like his sad songs like I Know She Still Loves Me....i got the George Strait Box Set for Christmas of 96 and i really enjoy it..if any of you George Strait fans dont have it yet go out and get it its well worth the money just for the unreleased songs but it also includes 32 #1 singles. He began his career or should say got on the charts in 1981....his first hit single was Unwound ....George Strait has inspired many great artists and could be called a rebel of sorts for when he first got on the charts most of the chart topping songs were crossovers which means they went from country to pop and sold millions but George Strait refused to that and i admire that seeing today many bands in the "Alternative" music genre are basically crossing over from other genres..and i DONT like that and i guess that is what made me start listening to country music...that and its the only music me and my mom agree on :) and of course my girlfriend Jeanine likes it too....
More to come in the near future..
