The three levels of country

I grew up in Oklahoma. I don't recollect if I've mentioned that.
In Oklahoma, we love our country music.
Good 'ol OK has produced greats, such as
Reba McEntire, Garth Brooks, and Toby Keith
(also, Brad Pitt and Hanson. I know they're not country, but they're cool)
So, being from Oklahoma, it is obvious that I have a good grasp on country.
In high school, Kathleen and I listened to it a lot.
We found that, like all genres of music, it is not all good.
There are three levels of country.

You should probably be listening to country while you read this. For ambiance.

Good Country:
This type spans across time and space. It doesn't matter when it was produced, from Bob Wills to Patsy Cline to Willy Nelson to Dolly Parton to Blake Shelton to Lady Antebellum, if it's good, it fits in this most high level. And you enjoy it.

Old Country:
This is the older country that is not quite good enough to make it into the "good country" category, but not bad enough to make it into the next one. It's just old.

Suck Country:
Suck Country, like Good Country, isn't prejudice against time period. Like Hufflepuff, Suck Country takes in the stragglers. There's not anything great or stand out-ish about Suck Country. These are the "mah truck broke doyawn, Ah lost mah gun, and mah girl leyaft, but my trusty dowg's still bah mah side" songs.

I hope you've enjoyed this bit of education. I usually feel the need to share my fountain of wisdom with others.
