Classic Country: The Grand Tour

Classic Country: The Grand Tour

Apple Music

Country music has always cherished its icons and their signature songs, but fans also know that for every “Grand Tour” or “Coal Miner's Daughter,” there exists a lesser-known treasure every bit of equal value. Like Waylon Jennings and Jesse Colter's leather-and-lace ode to the long haul, “Storms Never Last;” Juice Newton's kiss of new-school rockabilly “Queen of Hearts,” and the folk-infusion of John Denver's traditional tale of big mistakes, “I'm Sorry.” Charlie Rich, who scored his biggest hit with a beauty written by someone else (Kenny O'Dell's “Behind Closed Doors”), reveals himself to be a master craftsman with his own bad-night-worse-morning mourner “Sittin' and Thinkin';” and one-of-a-kind Country icon Marty Robbins revisits a past life on a startling, stunning “El Paso City.”
