Am I the only person who thinks that that was the point at which Mr. Taylor
should have considered not writing about new country music? And then to
single out Martina McBride as a noble exception, while backhanding Alison...
What a maroon.
Sorry, Neal.

No prob here, Jon. I agree with you. Taylor instantly ruins his cred by saying
he hasn't paid attention to the genre for X number of years. But worse, to me,
is that he makes himself the star of the review. I can't stand that. Leave the
"I" out of it.
