[QUOTE="Torm, post: 1988774, member: 12706"] I like a lot of Ricky Skaggs older stuff - "Country Boy At Heart", and his cover of "That's My Gal" - stuff like that. Haven't heard much recently that did anything for me. Allison Krauss, OTOH, kicks much butt. :) I tend to put Kenny Rogers more in the "Easy Listening Crossover" category - he migrated over from Christian Rock, and his stuff, while I like a lot of it, has always [I]mostly[/I] sounded like Easy Listening looking for a home to me. "Lady", "Every Time Two Fools Collide", "We've Got Tonight".... Yep. Johnny Cash was the man, and I particularly liked the way he wasn't a snob about genre if he liked something. He covered "One" by U2 pretty well, and his cover of "Hurt" - originally by Nine Inch Nails, for crying out loud :D - is so emotive, I can't listen to it very often. Even Trent Reznor - NIN's lead singer and the song's author - has said that Cash owned that song. Ever heard the stuff Emmylou Harris did with Trio (Dolly Parton, Linda Rondstadt)? "Those Memories" and "Telling Me Lies" still make it onto CDs for my car, from time to time. Awesome. I enjoy cross-genre stuff, whichever way you go - even if the product isn't the best (Reba McEntire's cover of "You Keep Me Hanging On" comes to mind :confused: ), it seems like a cool way to introduce artists of different genres to the sounds of instruments they might not traditionally consider using. Not to mention they are frequently a good way to freak out my friends, when they're big fans of say, Prince, and I hit 'em with a little "Purple Rain" - by Leann Rimes! :] [/QUOTE]
