country music

I've just posted my discussion summary and i'd like to say dido to that here...
I really have enjoyed the variety of stuff being done in class.
and I really like the 'In the country of country' (the book we're reading). I'd have to say that i like it more than Deep Blues, but i'm not saying deep blues was bad, it's just hearing about country music interests me more b/c i like it more. It's interesting to hear about where people got there start and to hear names that I know, or at least recognize. Allison Krauss was mentioned in the book when she was young, and I really like her music. Same with the Carter family and Patsy Cline. I think that's also because this music genre is a bit "newer" than the Deep Blues we were hearing about. Like on Pandora I'm liking the newer music better because it sounds better, i can understand it more, and I like the overall flow and beat of this new grouping of music. It's a lot more fun to listen to the music when you're feelin' it!
