It's not music you want to listen to all the time. But when you do , his
music is wonderful.

And a Texas guy too.

Amazingly, he was hugely popular in many countries in southern Africa. They like
american country music.

Never heard of him.
A true gentleman who refused to change his music to make it trendy when country music would forget what true country music really was, he kept things basic and simple ..... he was the true "gentle giant" .....

Based on your postings, likely he was quite a bit before your generation and interests.

He was also very popular in the US, New Zealand, Australia. But you probably didn't know that either.
