Lauren Bacall's "By Myself" and Eric Lax/AM Sperber's "Bogart" are just killer, killer in telling about one of the romances of the century. So glamorous!<br /><br />Also, I love the image of your parents playing George Jones and swinging around the living room. Too cool for school! :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-29956036018167735112013-06-19T11:24:07.611-05:002013-06-19T11:24:07.611-05:00Thanks, Crystal!

And I was so bummed about those records...imagine me walking in trying to find some Jones albums, seeing that DISPLAY'S WORTH OF THEM, and then realizing they were all beat to bejesus. Oh well! Hope you enjoy the playlist, I can't stop listening to it! :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-89354489741745432702013-06-19T11:21:27.037-05:002013-06-19T11:21:27.037-05:00What you said! :)What you said! :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-10157647166443409832013-06-19T11:21:16.991-05:002013-06-19T11:21:16.991-05:00Amen, sister! I'm always like..."Have you...Amen, sister! I'm always like..."Have you HEARD any country that isn't Johnny Cash?" when people say "I hate country, I only like Johnny Cash". What is with that? His music is steadfastly rooted in country music, so why wouldn't one give other classic country artists a shot? ((shakes head))<br /><br />And I agree that a lot of the modern "my tractor, my cut off jeans, muddin' in my 4 x 4" makes people just write off the whole genre.

It's just so interesting and full of great drama. Especially Liz Taylor and Richard Burton. I was JUST looking up Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart the other day-now THAT'S a great couple. <br /><br />I love old country. *hiccup* Oooooo White Lightnin'! I can't tell you how many times my parents got drunk and blasted George Jones when I was growing up.

Man, what a bummer that all those George Jones records were all scratched up. It’s a cryin’ shame. I’m gonna listen to your playlist this evening, and I can’t wait.

Although my current obsession is Hank Williams & Marty Robbins (though not together - I WISH!). I agree with you, I don't understand the aversion to classic country music - especially when coupled with the statement "I hate country, except Johnny Cash." uhmmm most classic country - including Johnny Cash - sounds the same! Meaning if you like him, you should give the rest of it a listen because chances are... you'd like that too! Drives me crazy. New country is so so SO bad, it really turns people off of the good stuff.LLADYBIRDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10409560091790703554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-67780765976465066052013-06-18T10:39:16.500-05:002013-06-18T10:39:16.500-05:00Whoa.
