Cowboy singer Chris LeDoux died yesterday from cancer. He was the real deal - pure western through and through. Even people who normally dislike country music respected him, and there were as many Metallica t-shirts as Ropers at his shows. Not too much airplay in the age of country-rock-pop garbage, but there are a whole lot of hardass cowboys who are having to pretend they "got somethin in my eye" this morning.
Dammit.
If you get a chance, listen to "This Cowboy's Hat" to get an idea of what he sounded like at his peak.
