Gotta agree that music shouldn't be written off right away just because it's
got a bit of a twang. Gillian Welch, Steve Earle, and Dave Alvin (among
others) all are a bit twangy, but that doesn't mean that the music they
create isn't fantastic.
BTW, welcome to the list Amy. How many Amys do we have on here now anyway?
And you must be new if you think that something slightly off-topic is
off-limits around here, as others will attest, I'm sure. :)
