A few weeks ago, Rick Jackson's nationally syndicated Country Hall of Fame radio show that I listen to on Milwaukee's WMIL 106.1 FM, was devoted to a current list of the all-time Top 40 country artists according to the Billboard charts.
Rick did not exactly explain how it works, but I think you get 40 points for a #1 song and 1 point for a #40 and so forth. Along with the rankings, he would give information and play a selected song by each artist. However, the standings were current as of that week.
I am a BIG country fan and sure enjoyed the show. Here's the list:
#40 DON GIBSON-- I Can't Stop Loving You
#39 TOBY KEITH-- Should've Been a Cowboy
#38 DON WILLIAMS-- Amanda
#37 ELVIS PRESLEY-- Kentucky Rain
#36 PORTER WAGONER-- Satisfied Mind
#35 RED FOLEY-- Chattanooga Shoeshine Boy
#34 MEL TILLIS-- I Ain't Never
#33 TANYA TUCKER-- Texas, When I Die
#32 BROOKS & DUNN-- Neon Moon
#31 BILL ANDERSON-- Still
Love That Old and New Country. --RoadDog
I Wonder: Why do people pay to go up in tall buildings then put money in binoculars to look at the things on the ground?
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Is Don Williams' "Amanda" the same song that Waylon Jennings recorded (Amanda, light of my life, they should have made you a gentleman's wife)?
Same song. If I recall, Don had it first.
