Some country songs have really weird chords.
This is more like it! Yet I'm sure there will be someone from the C&W ghetto police to announce shortly that it isn't country at all.
Nirvana is actually a good choice for a country cover. There have been so many bands doing bland watered-down versions of them already, there are no bones for modern Nashville to pick.
My favorite Dylan song!
Who cares, as a European I don't have to masticate the point, it's all country to me ...
The Dixie Chicks from 1999 called and they want their sound back.
I really used to like these kids. They're local (Greeneville) and different musically from modern "country." Unfortunately that different tack has veered toward Los Angeles of late. I worked their show a few weeks ago. Between the completely incompetent FOH hip hop wannabe and the Pro Tools rig playing the show, whatever warm fuzzies I had for them are gone. When a week later in the same venue, a 68 year old Eddie Money can roll in with a band and nothing else and still sound like he did 40 years ago with no tricks or comp tracks... yeah, screw Nashville.
