Country Music legend dies at 56

[Big Buck 1981]

I don't know how many people here listen to country music, but Chris LeDoux is probably the most underrated country artist of all time. This is truly a sad day. This guy was bar-none, one of the best stage performers ever, he sang his music with the knowledge and passion only a true rodeo man could possess. God bless you Chris LeDoux, you will be missed.

I'm so glad I got to see him live in concert 2 years ago when he came to the Adams County fair in Hastings, NE.

"Chris LeDoux is probably the most underrated country artist of all time."

While I don't particularly like country, I agree. He was probably the only artist I could tolerate... 56 is just way too young to die. RIP, Chris™

I used to do the whole bullriding thing and Chris LeDoux was one of the people I looked up to. He was the man. I got to meet him 4 times in my life. Always a class act and treated his fans great. I will miss the guy!

God this sucks. What a shocker!!

Chris LeDeux regarding Copenhagen:

(with a smile) "I know it will kill me, but a man has to have something to help him relax."

That's as close as I can remember that quote from a TV interview I saw.

God Bless, Cowboy! A truly rare breed is now even more rare.

Rest In Peace.
