We must confess that those songs are not familiar.
Mum tends to like R&R better.

Nice to remember some of these oldies.
I know the artists, but not the songs. Nice playlist
Melissa,
I enjoyed your selection of country music. I, especially liked "Drifter" by Sylvia which I believe is an introduction. Have a boogietastic week, my friend!
You're beautiful today sweet Mudpie. I love your song picks, very nice - but I'm concerned, No Conway?!
Some familiar old favorites here, "You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma" being one of them and Old Flame from Alabama. Love the Mickey Gilley lyric "A Headache Tomorrow". Great playlist. Have a blessed week.
A lovely and classic playlist. Very nice.
Once again, my kind of country...
We always like your tunes sweet Mudpie!
Our mom knows those tunes! We are rather partial to the singing of birdies ourselves but we like it when the people put on their music and sing to us too.

Wow, we learned a few new songs today! Mudpie, your Mommy sure knows a lot of songs.
We are not big C&W fans, but we DO like Alabama! We hope you guys have a marvellously Happy day!
Nice selections, Mudpie and Mom Melissa. We especially like the songs by Mickey Gilly and Alabama!
None familiar to me - I liked the first two (the two oldest) the best. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
