LISTENING TO:
American IV: The Man Comes Around
Johnny Cash

As stated many times before, I’m not a country music lover.

Is this even “country” music? – Cash covers pop and traditional songs in his own inimitable way.

A co-worker told me about this CD.

She lent same to me.

I ripped/copied same.

And then I purchased same – giving back. This is good – BRILLIANT – music.

To me.

All music

I dunno. My musical taste seems all over the board.

I like classical.

I like blues.

Not a big fan of jazz.

Not a big fan of rap.

Not a big fan of country/country and western – yet a lot of what is interesting to me lately/recently is, I guess, sorta country based.

OK, I’m getting old.

Am I also getting to be a redneck?

Johnny Cash has a distinct voice that – sadly – I’m just “getting” today.

*sigh*

Yet I welcome the “country” infusion, most of which I’ve discovered over the last half-dozen years or so.

Strange. Weird.

Nice.
