The Boy Wonder

Quote from: Shamrock Shore on October 10, 2025, 12:20:09 PMAn honest question.

Is there anyone in the 26 counties on this board interested in USA country and/or Irish C&W.

I would rather slaughter orphans than listen to this shite.

So you've no time for Dolly, Randy and Willie ?
Nor the late Kris, Merle and Hank ?

Now I'm not a fan of Irish C&W music in general but there were and are many talented singers past and present.
Your own county man, Larry Cunningham RIP, had a lovely singing voice.

Was reared on American Country, Dolly Kenny Charley Pride Waylon Jennings Jonny cash, tammy and the likes. Downtown on a Sunday eve was it?

Irish c&w less quality but any man who doesn't sing along to Philomena and blanket on the ground needs shot 😜😜

Substandard

Used to have massive rows with the auld lad going anywhere in the car as a teen, and developed a pathological hatred for Big Tom.  Things escalated when, driving along the road somewhere,  he took my copied tape of Queen Greatest Hits II and threw it out the window.  Retaliation came in the form of the next time he went herding,  a tape was tied to the latch of the gate, and at the end of the tape was a Big Tom cassette- a state of detente existed thereafter.
Over time,  I could say I got to like Charley Pride, and could tolerate a certain amount of Mick Flavin.  Big Tom still blacklisted, though.  Johnny Cash,  Kris Kristofferson, the Highwaymen and the likes good, and a shared hatred of Garth Brooks did build some bridges.  Then the Coen bros soundtracks opened a few doors into rockabilly and old timey stuff, which is grand now and again, but the single biggest travesty for me was Nathan f***ing Carter polluting Wagon wheel!!
