Another fine one, I'd say....

Moving some of these from the "Share" thread, so as to not post too many songs in it.

It's all up to the listener but one thing I know is that you don't hear female vocal back up like you do in some of the old songs and that makes them gems... as in ... (and I'm not going to repost Johnny Horton those are in the "Share" thread but his songs did it well too such as "The Mansion You Stole", great backing female chorus or vocals):

Wynn Stewart - It's Such A Pretty World

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

No female choruses, I think those were already starting to disappear in the '70s,  Earl Thomas Conley left the central country music industry because he thought the modernity and commercialism wasn't too good, some harken back to Patsy Cline, etc. and that is good.

Good female backing vocals here:

Connie Smith - Tiny Blue Transistor Radio

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Now, I don't think this is in particularly a great song, it is pretty good but the lyrics:

"... and the man at the radio station made a special dedication to Jimmy... etc. " okay,

Compare to Gram Parsons' "Return of the Grievous Angel":

"...and the man on the radio won't leave me alone". I've got to think Gram Parson heard Connie Smith's song of a few years before, not a big deal.
Gram Parsons - Return of the Grievous Angel

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Real good, great but maybe not on the same par as the others.... he died very young, he could have gained a bit more experience and was on the right track definitely.

BTW, today is the 9th? August 16th is when Elvis passed away, so, if I'm not here, one might remember that....

One of his two best in my humble opinion.....

James Thomas Conley - Smokey Mountain Memories

Mel Street recorded this in the mid-70s, Street suffered from depression and sadly killed himself. Conley wrote this song, pretty decent.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'll go with the possum.  Looks like no one. At least, on a level that these people were at. Make no mistake, some people record very authentic type of country music they just aren't as well known. We probably won't see that.

4 Strong Winds was written by Ian Tyson of Ian and Sylvia, they certainly came up with some good songs (Someday Soon), they were somewhat ahead of their time, sort of country-rock.

Miller's Cave - Charlie Pride

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

A lot of this I heard off the all-night trucking stations so that's probably why I'm partial to a number of songs, others have confirmed it... "Miller's Cave" was recorded by Don Williams, Bobby Bare, Hank Snow, Gram Parsons... I like Charlie Pride's version.  "Miller's Cave" almost seems like an allegory, there may be a physical place where it exists but, in a way, it seems like a mental state as well.. I can hear it that way, "they'll never find me because I'm lost in Miller's cave", Jack Clement wrote it, Clement also wrote for example, "Ballad of a teenage queen"... lost of people plied their songwriting talents.

Back then, some of these songs I'd cassette record off the radio, this first one, great country or not? I don't know. Commercial but always liked it... and Dickey Lee is still with us, he was a bit around some of the early '60s rock and roll with so-so success.  Over at youtube, there are videos related to the language used over there in South East Asia I think per karaoke... so a bit of a pop success.  Maybe an after-thought to the ? Mark and the Mysterians "99 Tears"......the song was recorded before Dickey Lee's version. Sometimes, arrangement, production makes the song as well.
9,999,999 Tears - Dickey Lee

Brown Mountain Lights

The Brown Mountain Lights are a series of ghost lights reported near Brown Mountain in North Carolina. The lights can be seen from the Blue Ridge Parkway at mile posts 310 (Brown Mountain Light overlook) and 301 (Green Mountain overlook) and from the Brown Mountain Overlook along North Carolina Highway 181 (NC 181), near Jonas Ridge, North Carolina. Additionally, good sightings of the lights have been reported from the top of Table Rock and Wiseman's View, both located in the Linville Gorge Wilderness. The best time of year to see them is reportedly September through early December .

Read more at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_Mountain_Lights

Wikipedia does let you cut right to the chase and see what this is purportedly about.

And Tommy Faile, famous songwriter of "Phantom 309", he recorded under another name too. I'd have to refresh my memory.

That song "Come In Stranger" listed above by Johnny Cash, I think it sounds like it takes the riff from the "Wildwood Flower", it's a good song, I'm not criticizing it but it does sound a bit like that other that is very renown classic... probably because it is so old... but it's got a hook to it too.

Oh, I knew that Clint Black song... I didn't know he sang it.

Here is a song Ricky Van Shelton sang, this by Jack Greene, I see he was on the country charts in the '60s but I didn't know much about him, much if anything at all. This is one of those country songs that for me at least, was one of those you file away.

These are all really great songs, "Long Black Veil" too, which must be kind of a country standard now. That's a great version you posted. @AllThatJazzZ

Glad there are a few of us who love classic country.

Here's a great oldie.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

This is such a simple song,and there is nothing spectacular about the singing,but for some reason it seems to be one of my new favorite songs. Damn thing has been out since the late 60's or early 70's,and I just heard it for the first time maybe a week ago. How the HELL is that even possible?
