I can't really speak with great authority on the matter.  However, after being around many devoted and knowledgeable country music fans for years. I can say this.  I'm under the impression that they get greatly thrilled when someone outside the genre tries their hand at country music.  Or maybe not.  Most of the ones I've been around fall under the maybe not category.  In fact, some of them get hostile, to be honest.  I tend to not say much.  I don't have a horse in this race.

Maybe they should've tried Western music instead.

Great tune that Haggard makes really believable. Love that one.

Not the Sheriff, but four talented guys from Nottingham ...

I'm partial to Kool & the Gang when it comes to late 70ies/early 80ies Black Disco, but this song was always kick-ass and they do that wonderful arrangement justice!

Was J. J. Cale a fan?  ??? Sounds like it.

Good version, this is even "arena rock-grittier" though.

Early BTO with their unmistakable CCRish groove, I really liked CF Turner's voice!

Neither did I.

No idea. Intriguing thought, though.
