I'm looking for songs by non whites country & western singers
I thank you in advance
You can start by looking for stuff by Charley Pride.
saint, welcome to A2K. The first black country singer to break the barrier was Charlie Pride. You know, of course, that the late, great Ray Charles did an award winning album of country songs.
Try a google search, and you will be astounded at how many young blacks are getting into the country side of life.
Hope this helps.
Belafonte and Ray Charles should not be left off the list. This was not Belafonte's forte, but he did some.
