Can changes be made?
Posted: July 14th, 2007, 9:04 pm
Earlier, Sugarpuss and I were discussing the inability of changing movies back to a more acceptable style, but thought it was impossible.
Today, for me, TCM and Encores' Western channel were both repeat days, so I looked for other things and fortunately I happened upon the 100 Best Duets in Country Music on CMT.
I, myself was getting a little tired of the rock and rap junk that seemed to be slowly infiltrating C&W, but a couple of years ago, two of the biggest stars (George Strait and Alan Jackson), joined and did a little song named "Murder on Music Row". It spoke about just those things and how we better do something soon, or C&W would no longer be what we know and love. Well, that little record made Song of the Year, Duet of the Year, Record of the Year, and on and on. i.e. it won all the awards it could be nominated for, and lo and behold, country music is quickly returning to its' roots and dissing all the other stuff that has tried to destroy it. I would love to see a movie come out and show what garbage is being offered as opposed to what could be done with the great techniques available today.
Any comments?
