What about the older artists who have been playing roots country for decades with very little recognition - Steve Young, Tom Russell, James Talley, Mark Germino, David Lynn Jones, Richard Dobson, Kieran Kane, Kevin Welch, Hugh Moffatt, Alvin Crow, Butch Hancock, Terry Allen, Jann Browne and dozens of others? There has always been great stuff around, but you have to look for it.
