Re: list y'all's favorite pre-1965 country singers
Tue, November 4, 2003 - 5:45 PMUmmm....Come on, I love the 60s country! Okay, Hank Williams, George Jones (pre-1965), Carter Family (esp. Maybelle), Louvin Bros. (esp. Ira), Johnny Cash of course, Lefty Frizzell, Wanda Jackson, Jimmy Rogers. I'm probably leaving a shite-load out. I guess I have to say Gene Autry too since I work there!
