| | Zhelyazkova - Volume 10 Number 4 |
 | | In this election, PP was the most active recruiter, attracting both a popular former mayor of Riga and Latvia’s leading popular-music composer to its ranks. | | | Latvians remain content to “think left but vote right,” and the country is still one of the few in the postcommunist world never to have had a left-wing government. | | | Latvian political parties used many innovative techniques to attract voters, including organizing beer festivals and hiring television celebrities to tour the country with politicians in order to attract an audience.This is not cheap. |

| | Birthplace of Country Music Alliance - 1927 Sessions |
| | In 1984, the Tennessee General Assembly recognized Bristol as the "Birthplace of Country Music." In 1995, the Commonwealth of Virginia followed, as the Virginia General Assembly recognized Bristol as both the State Senate and the House of Delegates passed identical resolutions honoring Bristol. | | | Rodgers is considered the "Father of Country Music" and was the first artist to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, and the Carter Family has been recognized as Country Music's "First Family" due to the influence of their works on succeeding generations of country music artists. | | | Although the events of 1927 helped to launch the recording careers of country music's pioneers and provided the first commercially successful country recordings, Bristol did not become the center of the country music industry. |

| | Popular Music and Society: Modern Twang: An Alternative Country Music Guide and Directory. - Review - book review |
| | Since 1995, No Depression has been the ex-officio magazine of alternative country music, the slippery genre that began in the late 1960s and remains solidly outside the Nashville mainstream, fusing elements of traditional country music with modern influences, notably punk. | | | David Goodman's Modern Twang: An Alternative Country Music Guide and Directory not only brings some order to the creative chaos that is alt.country but also serves as a valuable guide for both the fan and the academic. | | | Goodman is also to be commended for including Gay Country, a subgenre of alt.country that seldom receives attention, even though it represents an important alt.country voice. |

| | St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Alternative Country Music |
| | Alternative country, also referred to as "Americana," "Cow-punk," "Y'alternative," "No Depression," and "Insurgent Country," is a catch-all term describing a diverse musical genre that combines forms of traditional country music, such as twang, swing, rockabilly, and bluegrass, with the ethos and sound of punk rock. | | | While a definition of "alt.country" may be difficult to pin down, what it is not remains clear: it is not the "Hot Country" music of commercial Nashville, which is seen as homogenous and lacking a sense of tradition. | | | In 1995, Peter Blackstock and Grant Alden began publishing No Depression: The Alternative Country (Whatever That Is) Bi-Monthly, named for an Uncle Tupelo cover of a Carter Family original, which serves as the ex-officio magazine of alt.country. |
