Don't Get Above Your Raisin' (1984-1996)
In the 1980s and 1990s, 'New Traditionalists' like the Judds helped country music stay true to its roots. The period also saw the rise of superstar Garth Brooks and the return of Johnny Cash.
As country music鈥檚 popularity rocketed, the genre questioned whether it could stay true to its roots. The success of 鈥楴ew Traditionalists鈥� like Reba McEntire and the Judds suggested it could.
Garth Brooks overcame rejection and exploded onto the scene. And after being left behind by his label, Johnny Cash returned to a studio with just his guitar and his unforgettable voice to record albums that sold millions of copies and earnt him the respect of the industry he helped to create. Meanwhile, Rosanne Cash came out of the shadow of her father to start her own music career.
