...hoedown on a harpsichord may appeal to pop fans, but it pains oldtime C. & W. lovers: Nashville's famed Grand Ole Opry radio show still frowns on the use of any instrument other than a fiddle or guitar on its stage. The unsentimental recordmakers, on the other hand, argue that whatever the instrumentation, the essence of C. & W. has been retained in what they like to call the "Nashville Sound." As nearly as anybody can define it, the Sound is the byproduct of musical illiteracy. "In New York and Los Ange-les," says Columbia Records' Don Law, "they let their...
