| What is "Real Country" anyway? Well, it's country music as it was meant to be played - American music from the heartland, with its roots in bluegrass, folk and the sound of the American countryside. While you'll hear from legends such as Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty and Kenny Rogers, it's not just your grandfather's country, though. Today's stars - such as Toby Keith and Brad Paisley - and modern legends like Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks and Brooks & Dunn are part of the Real Country formula, giving you an amazing mix of country music as it was meant to be. |
