One day, we were sitting in the tour bus, talking about songs, and he mentioned a song, and I said, “I don’t know that one.” He mentioned another one, and I said, “I don’t know that one, either.” Then he started to get alarmed, so he spent the rest of the day making a list on a legal pad, and at the top he put “100 Essential Country Songs.” And he handed it to me and he said, “This is your education.”
heard an interveiw with her and she was amazed he came up with those off the top of his head, that being the days before Google and whatnot. Later when married (T-Bone Burnett iirc) and after he died, there was the list...waiting to be done. |

How is this rated so low? An easy eight on lyrical content alone.

Have always loved Roseanne. When this song was playing I had to click to see who it was because it was so good. Said to myself "But, of course" when I saw it was her. Still consistent after all these years.

I absolutely HATE country music, but love this (as well as her Rules of Travel). I guess then I really just hate that crummy pop country that everyone listens to, and I must say this is expanding my taste in music (thanks again Radioparadise).

Well, most of us will.
Can we get Bill to post this as the RP Credo: "Just listen to the music, hear the lyrics, and make a judgment based on your own taste. We will all respect that."  |

Rosanne Cash is at the core of "real" country, not the Nashville variety.

I personally like "September When It Comes," which took on an entirely new level of depth and eeriness on 12 September 2003... |
