Country music is everywhere, even in the erudite intellectual aeries of Europe... In fact, there's so much of the stuff, I barely know a fraction of it. This section includes a bunch of random bluegrass and country bands from across the European continent, although I'm aware there are many, many other artists and albums not currently on my radar. Also, separate sections exist for Germany and The United Kingdom and Ireland which have their own large, impressive country scenes, though many of those albums may also be included here. And trust me, once I crack the code and find all the records, France, Croatia and Lichtenstein will all get their own twang guides, too! (PS: I apologize for not being able to support umlauts and schwas and other special characters and for making all your languages look so very not right. I'm just not smart enough for all that technical-type stuff!)

Itcheyfoot "Life/Contemporary Folk And Bluegrass" (Main Records, 1976) (LP)
(Produced by Hans Richard Danner)
A German trio made up of Achim Dresch (banjo and fiddle), Wolfgang Ronsch (guitar and mandolin) and Manfred Wetterich (guitar), with a set of oddball originals and far-out 'Seventies covers such as "Feeling Groovy," "Fox On The Run," and "Teach Your Children." They subsequently changed their name to Canyon, and recorded at least one album under that name in 1978, filling out a much larger sound with several additional musicians pitching in. A hefty chunk of this album was made up of original songs credited to Herr Wetterich: "Coming Home," "Good Night, Angelina," "Poem For K," "Night Of A Broken Band," "Paranoia Brain" and "What I Am."
