Day 45: Prime Country

According to Sirius: This is where great country music from the '80s and '90s lives. Garth, Reba, Clint Black, Alabama, George Strait all play here. Hear the big country songs that made you a fan over the past two decades.

My Experience: I'm slowly beginning to catch on to the differences between channels, here. So yesterday we had New Country, also known as current hits. Today was kind of a foray into "retro" country...or stuff from the prior two decades. And here I am, with so little music knowledge, that I thought today's stuff was current. At the very least, I was more familiar with the artists from Prime Country.

A Time and a Place for Everything: Um...a country-western bar?

Sample Playlist:
  • Brooks & Dunn, Rock My World (Little Country Girl)
  • Keith Whitley, When You Say Nothing At All
  • Mary Chapin Carpenter, I Feel Lucky
  • Restless Heart, Why Does It Have To Be
  • Dixie Chicks, Without You
  • Garth Brooks, Standing Outside the Fire
High Point: Hearing the above song by Restless Heart...didn't even sound like a country song. Unless I'm thinking of the Mary Chapin Carpenter song. Either way, actually kind of enjoyed it.

Verdict: While I enjoyed it more than yesterday's channel...still not bookmarking it.
