The Killer has an underappreciated collection of country hits.

 

 

Agree, The Killer is an oft-forgotten country treasure.

And of course, that will always remind me of his cousin Mickey Gilley, who had plenty of country hits, but my all-time favorite of his is this Buddy Holly cover:

I was raised on country music, mostly 70s and 80s glamour cowboy stuff - Ronnie, Kenny, T.G. Shepard, Eddie Rabbitt, John Conlee, Anne Murray, Janie Fricke, that kind of stuff. But I grew to like just about everything country up until the genre died in the late 90s. RIP

 

Of course I dig the Outlaws, too. Ran into this hoss in Mesa, Arizona:

I've been watching hours and hours of these Ralph Emery specials on YouTube and there are some amazing performances. If it's alright with you fellas, I'm going to post a couple  of them. On the Glen Campbell, skipped to the 45 second mark to get to the singing. His cover of Crying is so fucking good, I can't get enough of it. Watching Willie, Waylon, and others is pure magic!
