Country Classics Go Into Grammy Hall of Fame
Willie Nelson's 1975 album, Red Headed Stranger, is among this year's inductees into the Recording Academy's Grammy Hall of Fame. Among the 50-plus recordings are a number of country-related songs, including Johnny Horton's "The Battle of New Orleans," Roy Orbison's "Crying," Elvis Presley's "Don't Be Cruel," Hank Williams' "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)," the Sons of the Pioneers' "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" and Janis Joplin's "Me and Bobby McGee" (written by Kris Kristofferson). A song or album must be 25 years old to be eligible for the Grammy Hall of Fame. 02/21/02

Janis Joplin or Elvis Presley did not cut country versions of those songs! Who in the hell did the choosing? Pete Fischer or the English bean counter CEO for Gaylord?

......I know it doesn't have anything to do with Gaylord but neither of those choices have anything to do with country!
