 Patsy Cline I was just listening to Coal Miner's daughterOswald, I love the blueblood Americana. I'm not one of you but it's great stuff. This great nation is founded on an Anglo-Saxon foundation, no doubt. |

I greatly admire and appreciate the contribution of Italian Americans to this nation. Business, sports, acting, literature, music-you name it. OswaldTheOsprey |

"Walking After Midnight" is one of her most clad-seductive pieces.

 Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers, 1926. I'm a baroque snob but I have a passion for Southern music. I don't mean the cheesy country music we have today. There was nothing commercial or artificial about any of it. |

 I have a Puckett recording on a collection called White Country Blues. He actually uses the epithet "darkie". |

I remember cranking up any of a number of Victrolas and rocking out to "Mississippi Mud", "Smoky Joe" and other such gems which were simply shitcanned over the decades. Back then it was just sort of humorous. Now, I'd give my left nut for some of those old platters. |

The only thing I can't get used to is your pace of life. |
