The point of this exercise is not to devolve music into a competition. It is to stimulate a lively conversation about what we all believe is the best album, using our differing perspectives to inform each other.

Country music doesn’t belong to the suits in Nashville. It belongs to YOU, the actual fans of country, and we’re taking it back one song at a time. You can find many of those songs here.
