It's time to talk about country music. Vince is considered a living classic of the musical direction "country" - where the roots of American music. Country – a white music, which brought with them to their new home natives of the old woman-Europe, first of all – the British. Culture in the United States from scratch was socials, she continued in the hearts of white settlers. Country – one of the fundamental directions of American culture – these melodies in the blood of every American. Country came even before the black Blues, but then they merged and gave birth to rock and roll.

Country band made up of living here, the same farmers and cowboys, the main tools – the ones that are always with you guitar and violin. Added everything else – mandolin, harmonica, later borrowed from the Negroes banjo, washing Board instead of percussion, well, every decent saloon had a piano... the Main entertainment on weekends – dancing. Why? In our villages everything is exactly the same – and I was dancing in the countryside, and dancing, and playing the guitar, and my face was beaten, and I beat. Ah, there is something to remember!

Of course, no bass and drums in a rural country were observed – why a cowboy bass? Where he would be chained to the saddle instead of the hard drive? And rural dances, - I remembered – perfectly are shown in the old Western "My dear Clementine..." Once long ago when I studied at school, I got the book of the Czech publishing house published in Russian – notes and words of the American national songs. We then she could not get out, but the Czechs are not particularly shy. Where it came from in our Muhosransk – no one knows, but I learned from there all the songs that I liked – all the classics of country music. I've been a fan of this style ever since.

Vince Gill is recognized in the USA live classic country (although even the devil himself will not distinguish the country from the Blues, Boogie-woogie, rockabilly or blue grass, since the replacement guitars on the guitar eliminates the sound of all these styles). Vince has won 21 Grammy awards, is a member of the Grand Ole Opry, and is also included in the country Hall of fame. Ranked 62nd in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "100 greatest country artists of all time", which is named "one of the main values of country music" and "the vocal guardian of traditional country music". In short – the peasant boy, and plays very well, and sings mentally, no wonder to let him can not bear neither Eric Clapton nor the legendary band "the Eagles".
