My country suggestions
Jerry Jeff Walker did a song called "I feel like Hank Williams tonight"... but I'm really loving Sunny Sweeney's cover of the song.
I'll relisten to the songs you listed and see if I can think to recommend some of the same kind. I remember ones I liked, but I want it to be something that fits your examples. Give me some time and I'll start thinking/working on a list.
Have it here. I hope it's to your liking.
Country Music recommendations
“Smoky Mountain Rain”--Ronnie Milsap
“I Wouldn’t Have Missed It for the World”
“What a Difference You’ve Made in My Life”
“Any Day Now”
Blind pianist whose very smooth voice soars in his songs.
Kenny Rogers--you have to listen to him if you listen to anything country:
“Coward of the County”
“Lucille”
John Denver--very smooth guitarist and well-known in his time.
“Take Me Home, Country Roads”
“Annie’s Song”
“Sunshine on My Shoulders”
“Wild Montana Skies” w/Emmylou Harris
“Fly Away” w/Olivia Newton John
George Jones
“He Stopped Loving Her Today”--probably his most famous song
Patsy Cline--a must-mention (some might say I should mention Dolly Parton or Tammy Wynette, but she has a much smoother delivery and voice than the other two)
“Crazy”
“I Fall to Pieces”
“Gentleman” Jim Reeves--very smooth, baritone crooner.
“Welcome to My World”
Willie Nelson--you’ll have to filter through his songs, as people either hate his singing or love it.
“Always on My Mind”
Johnny Cash--a must-listen; he expressed his voice and lyrics in probably the most unique way IMO.
“Hurt”
“Solitary Man” (a big hit by redoing Neil Diamond’s song)--impressive acoustic guitar
This is hardly exhaustive, but definitely gives you several things to check. Great thing is that you see them on Youtube and find which you really like.
There are others I could have included but I tried to use ones closer to what you listed rather than go with some country singers that did more ballads and I especially excluded any modern country ones, given they’re so different from the more classical country like these.
