		Country music lyrics about workers reveal that the men and women they portray are aware of their status as members of the working class, sometimes painfully so.
		Despite the frequent references in country music lyrics to the working class status of its writers and performers, and of the music's audience, country music is devoid of practically any hint of class consciousness.
		Country music lyrics also reveal why trade unionism and class consciousness, despite the overwhelming evidence of class awareness, are not supported by the music's working class audience.

		Country music has a history that is deeply rooted in traditional white Southern working-class values, patriotism, conservative politics, and lyrics that tell the unblinking truth about life.
		And though most country music and country music fans might advocate a straight and narrow conservative path, the lyrics of country songs deal with the dilemmas of life with a complexity not found in any other popular music.
		Country music's earliest roots are found in the ballads of the Appalachian Mountains, songs that stemmed from a tradition brought to America by the English, Scots, and Irish who settled that territory.

	Country Gentlemen: Can't You Hear Me Callin': Early Classics 1963-1969 - PopMatters Music Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Driving through the country half-listening to bluegrass radio, it would be easy to mistake a Country Gentlemen recording for the bucolic, barn dance sounds of Bill Monroe or the Stanley Brothers.
		It might even come as jolt to realize that the music of the Country Gentlemen was not originally performed in a musty grade school auditorium in some forlorn coalfield; this stuff was being played unabashed in collegiate concert halls and coffeehouses around the nation's capitol.
		What the Country Gentlemen (in their classic period, anyway) brought to the table was not so much a memory of good ol' days as a stark reaction to the world as it was.

		His status as a top box-office attraction in motion pictures brought his music to the attention of a vast audience otherwise unfamiliar with country music.
		His smooth, relaxed baritone voice extended his appeal to devotees of mainstream pop music, while the down-home warmth of his delivery assured the country audience he never ceased to be one of them.
		Although he continued to perform sporadically during the next five years, he left the arena before country singers’ personal appearances were termed “concerts” and before it became commonplace to attribute artistic genius to country or rock artists.

	St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Alternative Country Music
		Alternative country, also referred to as "Americana," "Cow-punk," "Y'alternative," "No Depression," and "Insurgent Country," is a catch-all term describing a diverse musical genre that combines forms of traditional country music, such as twang, swing, rockabilly, and bluegrass, with the ethos and sound of punk rock.
		While a definition of "alt.country" may be difficult to pin down, what it is not remains clear: it is not the "Hot Country" music of commercial Nashville, which is seen as homogenous and lacking a sense of tradition.
		Gram Parsons, generally considered the godfather of alt.country, noted in 1972 to Frank Murphy, "Yeah, my music is still country--but my feeling is there is no boundary between 'types' of music." His words forecast the diversity of a genre that would follow the trail he had blazed.

		Time Life enters the country compilation sweepstakes with a somewhat slim yet still solid mix of late-'60s hits and misses.
		Spanning most of the big country labels, the 15-track set ranges from outlaw sides (Merle Haggard [+]'s "Mama Tried" and Waylon Jennings [+]' "Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line") to a few slices of Nashville sound gloss (Eddy Arnold [+]'s "Make the World Go Away").
		And Elvis even makes an appearance, with his ethereal gospel stunner "Crying in the Chapel." Taken in tandem with the more bulky and focused Columbia Country Classics: The Nashville Sound, this varied sampler makes for a heady, late-night tavern soundtrack.

		Due to the presence of all the guest players on this vintage "farewell to the original lineup" CJ and Fish show, the music--especially on the closing "Donovan's Reef" jam--comes incredibly close to sounding like The Dead or The Airplane during one of their long improvisational flights.
		The Country Joe sound is still evident, although it had changed from the early days of "Electric Music" from the purer acid-rock of that time to add elements of soul/funk/boogie to the mix.
		There are some great moments here, but like almost all SF jam albums of the period there are are dull moments when the super-group of jammers are slightly off or feeling their way.
