While taking a short trip recently, I didn’t take the iPod and bounced around on the radio instead. I was delighted to come across a station playing REAL country music — the ’90s songs I have had on CDs and my iPod forever.
“Don’t Take the Girl“! “John Deere Green“! “Should’ve Been a Cowboy“! (And the title of this post, from 1985.)
Then came the bumper.
“They don’t make ’em like this anymore. Classic Country, KMJM.”
The “Class of 2021” T-shirt seen earlier in the day just wasn’t enough.
