I would put George Strait in one of the 11 to 20 spots and replace him with Conway Twitty in the top 10. The top 10 as chosen here were worshipped by their fans and more importantly they reached A LOT of people who weren’t generally country music fans. No one will ever excel the gravitas of Johnny Cash’s version of “Hurt”, not from ANY music genre. It’s my favourite Cash song now and I’ve been around listening to him since the ‘60’s. My Top 3? Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson. I’ve always been partial to male singers of any genre. Marty Robbins is more of a western singer, like Roy Rogers and Gene Autry, but he could be considered as one of the greatest crossover singers. Speaking of crossovers, Patsy Cline is (rightly) recognized in this Top 10, but not Jim Reeves? Reeves didn’t have the twang in his voice but he could melt butter on a biscuit faster than you could say, “Gosh darn”. This list would’ve been more realistic if it was a Top 20. Since it isn’t I will make one more controversial edit - replace George Jones with Randy Travis.
