It's like most things, there's good and bad. If you're prepared to dig and listen you can find some stuff that's great to listen to.
I'm not saying that but it made musicians lazy there's a reason why guitarists are still more impressed with Robert Johnson than Kirk Hammett mate.

Jesus, let go of the metallica thing.
The fact you wrote off country before Cash, Jennings, Haggard, Nelson, Coe or Kristofferson had even played a note says more about you than me m8. Hell, Hank didn't start recording til the end of the 30s.
I would say some of those guys are good songwriters but they are all very basic musos I don't expect you to grasp it.

If I listened to music for musical skill, I'd be jerking off to Malmsteen records, not the case mate.
Country and blues aren't all about skill either.

Nah he's on to something here. Every country song made in the last 30 years sounds like a toned down Def Leppard soft rock balladry.

No offence edgie but I wouldn't take your opinion on that. There's a bunch of new guys that exist outside of the mainstream Nashville scene and write great s**t, bit you wouldn't have heard of them.
Anyway that's beside the whole point which was that the golden era was basically the 50s-70s, same with blues which had a revival in the 80s.
I like basic music too but I'm allowed to not rate people as musicians same as I'm allowed to question a footballers ability.

That's the point though, isn't it? That once upon a time the mainstream successful popular examples used to be ok, even quality?
There will always be things outside of it.

I didn't quite go that far but talking since country music definitely became more electric.

Well they usually have better voices that can transcend a three chord limp
Love country music personally. I regularly watch brokeback mountain for the soundtrack.

I literally said that expecting a reaction from you
I'm fine with that I've just educated myself through listening to the roots of basically everything & the infancy of most genres is what excites me most I'm sorry if that offends people.
