You may be right, I can't recall a Tammy Wynette sound-a-like either.

Here's a good one that doesn't get heard enough. And check out the fiddle and steel guitar breaks.

Most of the country music around me growing up was Bluegrass ala bands like Joe Val and the Bluegrass Boys, Dry Branch Fire Squad, and the Seldom Scene. As a kid who liked the Beatles and the Stones, Bluegrass seemed like some kind of medieval torture. Now I wish I had been paying closer attention.

I've always liked the walking bass swing/shuffle style of rhythm in country music. And I always think of this guy first.

Are you calling George Jones a jerk?
I guess he did some jerky things in their marriage but GJ will never be a jerk in my books And, Tammy did not stand by her man eventually leaving Jones for a "better" life.

I think Patsy has as many impersonators as Elvis sometime; but they all do a remarkable job and this one is no exception.
Saw a good one (local Va. woman) at the Henrico theater couple months ago
who also has Cline down to an art.

I am glad to see that "old country" is not dead!! This kind of music is my passion. I love to hear that old telecaster and steel guitar the best, but that bluegrass is pretty darn good, too. Anybody else got some New Old Time Country Bands that they want to share ? I'm listening, good stuff!! Thanks for the Memories!

She never said that song was about The Possum...
This one came out after the D-I-V-O-R-C-E.

Nice, but also important to note that she was a staunch Clinton supporter and performed at Clinton fundraisers. It makes it a little less of a sexy "smackdown" story but there you go.

At least in that clip the Faron Young looks like an interesting cross-pollination between old country and Las Vagas Crooner. Though it is mostly the visuals there is some of it in the vocal delivery as well.

Q: How many female country-western singers does it take to do a Patsy Cline song?

A: All of them, apparently.
