Till I Gain Control Again is my favorite RC tune, especially the Van Morrison cover. One of the best tunes every penned.

Even if they were younger, but the music sounded the same, radio wouldn’t play anything from the album though..at least I highly doubt they would.

I guess with two far from young artists, Vincent (birthday 7/13) and Watson, who’ve had minimal top 40 success in the past, it would be unrealistic to expect country radio to play their music. It’s a big loss to country radio listeners because that album is outstanding.

Pistol,
I agree about “Song for the Life.” Great song and one of Jackson’s best performances.

Matt, If they knew about it, they’d still be afraid to play it…or at least unwilling to. I can’t say enough about that album though.

Ben, radio isn’t afraid to play Rhonda Vincent/Gene Watson, it likely doesn’t care about the album or know it even exists. Sad, I know.

“The current state of country music is great; it’s the current state of country radio that’s the problem.:)”

So true. There’s so much great country music still being made, like a stellar Gene Watson and Rhonda Vincent duets album for instance. It’s just that radio is afraid to play it.
