    Country is a tough list because there are so many REALLY, REALLY good voices around right now. I dont see the same number of outstanding voices in rock/pop music today.

    I need to give this one some thought.

    So, why did you open the thread? I've never been a Rock guy but I enjoy reading the thoughts of those that are.
