Southern Sass Summary
Well, butter my biscuits and call me a Rolling Stone fan. If you told me a year ago that country artists would be belting out “Paint It Black,” I’d have said you were as crazy as a sack of rattlesnakes. But here we are, and this new documentary, “Stoned Cold Country,” puts us smack dab in the middle of the studio as they mix country crooning with rock ‘n’ roll. You got your cowboy-hatted artists hollerin’ out Rolling Stones tunes like they were born with a guitar in their hands.
But like a potluck dinner where someone brings in a tuna casserole, some folks have their feathers ruffled over this genre-bending carry-on. Well, sugar, i’ve gotta tell ya – ain’t nothing wrong with trying something new. In my book, they’re just spreadin’ the love for good music. Now where’s my sweet tea? I got a documentary to watch.
