The Blah Blah is back after a short break! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving, but let’s get on with the music!
Die-hard country fans would probably stone me for saying that Doug Burr is country, but I’m not usually a country fan, so I think I can get away with it.
I shouldn’t say I’m not usually a country fan. More what it is is I’m very particular about the country music I like. I love Johnny Cash. I love old Hank Williams Sr. I love William Elliott Whitmore. I even like some Willie Nelson and Hank Williams Jr. if you catch me on the right day.
And I love Doug Burr’s music. Call it country, folk, indie, americana… I don’t care, cuz I’m too busy enjoying it to wonder what genre it falls under. Doug Burr is one of those artists that I liked as soon as I heard (which is rare) and that I’ll probably like for the rest of my life.
Welcome back to The Top 10 in Christian Blues Week, now on day 3!
I hope you’ve been enjoying this week and perhaps even broadening your musical horizons. Looking at my Blog Stats recently, most of my readers have not been enjoying this week. My exploration of Christian blues has served to significantly decrease the number of hits we receive daily here at the Blah Blah. Sell-outs. I’m no servant to the public! If Christian blues is what I want to blog about, it’s Christian blues I’m going to blog about.
I’ve worked really hard as a lover of music to not turn into a music snob. There was a time when I vehemently declared that all country music was awful, all blues was cheesy, and all popular rock bands were sell-outs. The only real music was indie music. There was also a time (even before the above-mentioned time) when all I listened to was folk and classical. But I’ve had my fun as a music racist and now I’m open to pretty much every type of music. I don’t like most rap I’ve heard. I’m pretty picky about my screamo choices. But I won’t exclude an artist simply because their music belongs to a particular genre. I’m an equal opportunity listener.
