The good news is that Garth Brooks is out of retirement and back in Nashville making music. The bad news is that you will have to go all the way to a store to get any of it. Brooks still doesn’t have any of songs up on iTunes, and Blake Shelton has a big problem with that. The Voice coach is calling for a more convenient way to get a hold of his favorite Garth songs.
Now the Brooks is getting back to making music again, Blake Shelton has some advice for him. Earlier in the year The Voice coach urged the country legended to get with the times, tweeting:
"Dear Garth Brooks. For the love of god and all that's holy, please get your music on iTunes. PLEASE! It's 2014!!!! #frustratedfan"
Shelton went on to further explain his comments, telling a syndicated radio roundtable:
"I thought, man, I want to buy, I don't remember what it was -- ‘Shameless' or something,I got on iTunes, and it's like tribute bands, and it's like, 'What?' So, then I got on Spotify, and it's not there. It's not on YouTube. It's not anywhere."
Brook’s has a long standing distaste for iTunes telling The Star Tribune:
"So, until they change or I change. or some other company comes and gives them some competition, then I don't think you're ever going to see us on iTunes."
Shelton also commented on this during the interview, adding:
"I know Garth's stance on it, which is he wants people to go buy the album and have the album experience. I still don't know why you can't do that on iTunes, too...My ultimate fear is ... I've had friends tell me that their kids didn't know who Garth Brooks was, and that upsets me. I don't like that. I think it's because kids are walking around with their iPhones and their iPods, and if they can't get it on there, then they probably don't know it exists.He's the reason that I worked a summer and saved up to buy a black Takamine guitar with a cutaway on it...He's that important to me, and I just hate to think that people can't get their music -- get his music whenever they want to."
