country music acts
Who should be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame?
In 2001, ten acts were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in an apparent game of “catch-up.” Currently, three acts are inducted every year. Who do you think should be part of the class of 2008?
My choices:
HANK LOCKLIN, who will be 90 in 2008. His career went from the 40s through the 70s, and “Please Help Me I’m Falling” was the #3 song of the entire decade of the 60s.
AL DEXTER, the man whose popularity was responsible for creation of a Billboard “Hillbilly and Western” singles chart.
ERNEST V. STONEMAN, who was simply too influential in the 1920s and 1930s to continue to be overlooked.
Of course I agree on Hank Locklin but I also have to list these great artists Wynn Stewart,Tommy Collins, I also think Al (Poindexter) Dexter is way overdue. I don’t think some that were in this last grouping that was inducted actually deserve the accolades that some you and I as well as okiefan has listed. It’s all a freakin political game nowadays.
