    I really became aware that R&B and Country were similar when Lionel Ritchie was writing songs for Kenny Rogers back in the early eighties. Rogers had a hit with "Lady", which was written by Ritchie.

    I always wondered what it would sound like if Ritchie sung it, then I saw him do it on Johnny Carson one night. It was great.

    Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder and the Commodores are examples of R&B acts who recorded country songs.

    Y'all not hip to Ronnie Milsap from way back in the day. My mother used to bump his records all the time when I was little.

    I do listen to a number of country artists also. Clint Black, Travis Tritt, LeAnn Womack. Sometimes you hear theses songs and the stories in them and you just say to yourself I can relate to exactly what they are singing about.

    Country music, conservatism, guns. I think that black Republican tea party is going down right on this board.

    Yep, and a lot of our moms (and us) were singing right along to the Oak Ridge Boy's Elvira:
