Electrifying America: Social Meanings of a New Technology, 1880-1940 | 
#tuesdaytunes
I've been finding comfort this week in revisiting 80s/90s country: Doug Stone, Collin Raye, Lonestar, Sawyer Brown, Mary Chapin Carpenter.
Clint Black's D'lectrified was a childhood favorite, and, listening this morning, I couldn't remember for sure whether The Galaxy Song was from Monty Python (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkkjzmuEBbo) or Animaniacs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BphgKX-DZE), and that made me smile 😊
TieDyeDude Obviously, it was Monty Python 😝 Going back to the album, though, it starts of with some straight fun song, shifts to some beautiful duets, and ends with a couple excellent re-recordings of hits. Clint doesn't seem to get the reverence afforded to, say, George Strait or Garth Brooks, but he was a superstar in his prime and was one of the few singers that wrote his own songs. 1mo
TheBookHippie If I remember right Clint is/was a decent human as well? 1mo
TieDyeDude @TheBookHippie As far as I'm aware :) 1mo

MemoirsForMe Love Mary Chapin Carpenter! 🙌🏻 1mo
Kerrbearlib Not a country singer from that era, but have you heard Orville Peck? I just discovered his music and it‘s so good! 1mo
TieDyeDude @Kerrbearlib Yes, I've listened to him here and there, but really got into him last year when he released his duets album Stampede. He's got an amazing voice and style! 1mo
