Country Podcast

A continuing subject of interest to me are the changes in country music through the years. Essentially, it is transforming into family-friendly fare for Republicans. Not always, but little by little. The theme of this podcast is religion in country music. Religion was an important part of country music for a long time. Then there came the cultural revolution of the 1960s and 1970s. Kris Kristofferson, one of my favorite artists of all genres, is included with his "Sunday Morning Coming Down." Then on to the modern, retro religious cool with Allison Krauss, whose voice almost makes me wish I were still religious.
