Arkansas - the Mecca of Music

you forgot Liz Mcdaniel

You should go on. Helena, Arkansas, of all places, is one of the most important cities in the US when it comes to the development of the Blues. Which is what Rock was based on. Which is what our current fairly lousy music is based on.

Helena has suffered enough I don't blame them for that though.

No love for Jim Dandy and Black Oak Arkansas?

A lot of talk is that Jim Dandy influenced David Lee Roth.

There that many Muzzy's in Arkansas?

... a fail on the first one I checked. So strike two and no need to go any further.

Just curious so I clicked on country music singers from Kentucky and got 154 names. Some of these I had never heard of but this is just country too.
