Without being disagreeable to anyone in here, guess what I'm trying to understand is why all the controversy? No one has even heard anything from the album yet, just what has been printed. And it's not like it hasn't been done before by the other guys. The more I read about it, the more I want to hear it before making any comments pro or con.

And for the ones who say they don't like country music, what are the Eagles but country rock, despite them trying to shed that reputation? They started out that way and even though the rock has changed the sound somewhat over the years, it hasn't changed their reputation for easy listening, ballad-like songs that tell stories or make statements.

Again this is MY opinion and I'm not trying to start a fight with anyone in here. Just saying what I personally think.
