Subject: RE: the Confederacy in Country Music
Most of the bluegrass songwriting about the Civil War is sentimental drivel".
This is the statement I object to---and I am not alone.
Some is, some isn't.
If you think it's "most" you need to hear more.
That's what I mean about "smearing".
And Mudcatters are not above it.
Though it's about time they at least tried to rein it in.
