john denver sang rocky mountain high about the time the cockroachs started creeping in. glen campbell sounded to me like he ought to be performing in one of those all male san fransisco bath houses that were responsible for the rapid spread of aids in the 80's.
that is when country music started changing into the earache causing cacophony being played today.

Daughters took me to see Loretta a couple three years ago at a casino in Oklahoma.. She was great.
All the legendary country artists and rock and roll both wrote most of the music they performed. Today it sounds like it came out of a computer or something.

Do yourselves a favor and listen to Sturgill Simpson. He's the real deal. Sounds like Merle. I've also been into Billy Strings and the Marcus King Band. I saw Marcus twice. Rita is gone and Plant your corn early are good tuned. He's a heck of a singer and guitarist. You definitely have to dig deep to find good music in today's world.
