Like I've said before here in The Excellent 80's, we don't discriminate... today, we're throwing a little country flavor atcha as we are known to do from time to time... first up, a man that was on American Idol last month... looking younger than he did last month, here is the man born in Marshville, North Carolina with one of his 30 something #1's - it's Randy Travis with "Forever and Ever, Amen"...
