RE: I'm a redneck that doesn't like country music

in #music4 years ago (edited)

Yes!! I do love ALL country music ; though I am not a red neck , not even American .

Country music is very soothing , nerve relaxing . The message , often by stories conveys apt wisdom necessary to navigate certain unpleasant circumstances!

Don Williams , Kenny Rogers, James Last which you didn't acknowledge comes before Dolly Paton as my favourites !

Metal music is ok by me as well , but I gravitate more towards Afro Pop !!

James Last

Never even heard of him. I'll go ahead and look him up now. Thanks!

Some info about him here by Wikipedia

James Last (German pronunciation: [tʃeɪms last],[1] [dʃeɪms lɑːst];[2] born Hans Last; 17 April 1929 – 9 June 2015),[3] also known as Hansi, was a German composer and big band leader of the James Last Orchestra. Initially a jazz bassist (Last won the award for "best bassist" in Germany in each of the years 1950–1952[3]), his trademark "happy music" made his numerous albums best-sellers in Germany and the United Kingdom, with 65 of his albums reaching the charts in the UK alone.[4] His composition "Happy Heart" became an international success in interpretations by Andy Williams and Petula Clark.

Thanks for reaching out !!

I hadn't heard of this guy either. Lots of flute. A very different style. This has given me some relaxing music to have in the background during Covid lockdown.
