75. 03 Jul 2021 The Worst Country Song of All Time
(with Brantley Gilbert and Hardy)
The great country music singer and songwriter Toby Keith of Oklahoma has passed away from stomach cancer at the age of 62..same age as myself now, but he was about 4 ½ months older.
Toby Keith Covel was born in Clinton (in Custer and Washita Counties), Oklahoma on Saturday, July 8, 1961.
Mr. Keith passed away in his sleep on Monday, February 5, 2024.
Toby Keith's catalog of music was loaded with great, lovable, and even very fun songs. His very first charting single, when he burst brightly onto the country music scene during the first half of 1993, was "Should've Been a Cowboy." "Cowboy" became his first of twenty number one singles on the United States of America BILLBOARD entertainment magazine Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.
I love many of his songs, and the competition is fierce trying to pick a favorite, but my traditional top choice did not reach number one, but number two, in 2006.
Thank you so much for all the great country music, Mr. Keith. Your job is done. Go rest high on that mountain alongside all the other legends of country music..
