Buck Owens and the Buckaroos were a huge part of "The Bakersfield Sound" that put country music on its ear in the 60's. I love this song:

I hear ya, Bocephus.  I was the same way for years. In general, I didn't like old country although there were exceptions. All I can say is that, looking back, it feels like it snuck up on me.  These days, I like old country, although there are exceptions.

Amen.

I have long enjoyed Marty Stuart's version of this song written by Ola Belle Reed:


This is the original performed by Ola:


And this version is somewhere between Ola and Marty;


Interesting how country music has evolved over the years. Of course, so has rock and roll.   

Amen.

This Gram Parsons number was recorded during his brief stint with The Byrds.  He didn't make the 27 Club, having passed at the age of 26  from a toxic combination of morphine and alcohol:


The story around Parson's death is kinda wacky:  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Gram_Parsons

Amen.
