What if country music today was like the George Jones ERA?

Have you ever gave much thought about how country music would be like if it was like it was in the George Jones's Greatest Era? Or maybe like it was when the Great Patsy Cline was alive? I don't know about you but, to me some country music is more like soft rock when I was a kid. There are some artists that still try to keep a part of the past alive by re-singing some of the old songs such as Rose Garden. Then there are others that keep pressing a new wave into the country music industry. However there are some wonderful artists that are singing great country music. Like Alan Jackson, but what is your favorite old time country music artist and what would you like to see the country music industry be more like?
