		<description><![CDATA[Whoever thought that Tim Mcgraw&#8217;s #1 single &#8220;Don&#8217;t Take The Girl&#8221; is the undisputed champion of sad country songs never considered the two that I will lay before you today. There is no getting around it &#8220;Teddy Bear&#8221; and &#8220;(You&#8217;ve Been Quite a Doll) Raggedy Ann&#8221; are almost sadistic in nature. I equate the same [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I apologize if the title is misleading. Don&#8217;t bother trying to find Jeff Bridges country debut. Nonetheless, it would not have been surprising. We have seen commendable attempts by Kevin Costner and Billy Bob Thornton, but their projects came across contrived and unauthentic.  No, this title is a reference to the upcoming film Crazy Heart [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If someone appraised your yearbook, what do you think it&#8217;s worth would be? If you were Hank Thompson, the answer would be $200. Country music buffs with deep pockets should be aware of the country music estate sale that Christie&#8217;s, New York&#8217;s popular auctioning company,  is spear-heading on December 3. This might seem out of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	The other night I took a stroll down to my favorite neighborhood bar Brown&#8217;s Diner. It&#8217;s located on Blair Ave right off of 21st Ave  in the Hillsboro Village Area of Nashville. For anyone who has never been to Brown&#8217;s, its a great place to get a cheeseburger and hear some of Nashville&#8217;s best [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems that the prerequisite for all of the country alumni that have graduated from Belmont University is that they conform to wherever country music is heading. Jace Everett never got that memo. Although he has never had any real solo chart success per say, his first charted single, &#8220;That&#8217;s The Kind Of Love I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once upon a time there was a certain young hooligan from Memphis that was billed along with the likes of Faron Young and Hank Snow. The young man was shunned by the country greats. They didn&#8217;t regard him as country, and for good reason. His music was edgier and suggestive. What they didn&#8217;t know is [...]]]></description>

Of course he said yes, and I was ecstatic. I have very fond memories of the original. Let me rephrase that. I have very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am concluding my predictions on the tomorrow&#8217;s CMA Awards Show. Let&#8217;s not waste any time.
The Vocal Group of the Year Award has usually been reserved for Rascal Flatts. Unstoppable has accrued a #1 hit  with &#8220;Here Comes Goodbye&#8221; and a #2 hit with &#8220;Summer Night,&#8221; but &#8220;Why&#8221; hasn&#8217;t really taken off. The guys better [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh, if only the CMA awards could be like college football. Jamey Johnson would beat out Brad Paisley. Miranda Lambert would pull a huge upset against Taylor Swift. Unfortunately, there are no come-from-behind victories at the CMA&#8217;s. Most of the &#8220;little people&#8221; do not even get to compete. So, I am going to appease the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Death is not a respecter of person, musician or not. However, it does seem that the most talented artists are always taken in their prime. They either leave this world under extreme circumstances that are beyond their control, or by their own volition. Johnny Horton&#8217;s death falls under the category of the aforementioned. Horton, like [...]]]></description>
