Default Dwight Yoakam - Guitars Cadillacs Etc. etc. - The Reprise Album Collection 1986 - 200

I admit it. My name is Craig and I like country music.

Well not all country music especially today’s country/rap/pop hybrid. I like the old stuff.

Perhaps its because it causes me to think about my parents singing to Hank Williams or George Jones on the radio. Country music before the sheen is what I like. Broken trucks, loves and lives. Reborn trucks, loves and lives.

I have been blown away by this huge collection of music from Dwight Yoakam. It comprises 9 of his albums over the 1986 - 2000 time period. I am listening to it via Tidal MQA at 24/96. So far, I have only listened to Discs 1, 2 and 4. They each sound fantastic but Disc 4 is especially great.

The music is all upbeat positive and made with a ‘country calm’ even when the band is rocking.

If you are a country music fan, this is a must listen, must have. If you are a casual CM listener, give it a try and you might love it.

I look forward to listening to all 9 discs of the collection, finding the gems and ‘seeing’ my folks dance around the kitchen. My Dad saying some songs are too much Rock and my Mom chastising him to ‘get with the times’.
