Country Hayride - Western Swing Takeover
Crispy Cowboy, of East Lonesome Drifters fame, explores the foundations of country and Western music. Expect outstanding vintage records from old-time, hillbilly, folk, Nashville sound, western swing, outlaw, red dirt, Bakersfield and more.
From the host: "This month we celebrate the lasting impact of Western Swing music from the 1920s to the present. From The Light Crust Doughboys, Milton Brown and Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys to Asleep At The Wheel, Hot Town of Cowtown, Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks and many others we try to narrate the story."
