This article is unreferenced, and because of the nebulous subject matter, I see no way to reference it. Even if we verify the events described, we cannot easily verify that the culturual significance is anything other than the article author's opinion.

Comment It's worth noting that there are categories implicitly underpinned by the subject of the article: Category:English country music songwriters and Category:English country musicians, plus subcat Category:English country music groups. But it's more implicit than actual, due to the flagged problems in the article's content. AllyD (talk) 11:05, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep After a session with Google I've added a couple of article references. Its content needs broadened (the Digby ref can assist with that) but I think there's enough to say it should stay. AllyD (talk) 11:23, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Almost all country music songs are written in English, although sometimes some Spanish phrases or words are thrown in. Mandsford (talk) 16:04, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
