Been away for a long time. Glad to hear the old time c+w. Ever hear Waylon J. and Anita Carter singing "Rings of gold"? An all time fave of mine. Wacky echo. | |

Texas Native:
Not a protest, something was lost in translation. That was my sliding guitar sound imitation you made Betsy. | |

Hi Betsy, lovely hearing your show and I wish that there were more shows that covered this great but under-heard music. You are a gift to fmu! | |
|

Betsy:
Oh, ha! Gotcha, Texas. The phonetics didn't translate. ;) Welcome Dale, and no TC Chuck I've never heard that duet, but I'd love to! | |

i think real country music died when marty robbins died. the blow dried highlighted eye linered 'men' who do country today are a joke. my unsolicited two cents. | |

TC Chuck:
The Anita + Waylon version may still be on youtube, enjoy | |

At some point, Bobby Helms' Fraulein- a tune our GIs made famous in SE Asia during WW2- about Texas back then, was it not? My humble request, not to be a pest. | |
|

Betsy:
Hey Dave, I'll look for that one! Don't know Bobby Helms. | |

dan penn sounds a hack of a lot like the silver fox. | |

I'll bet you've heard Bobby Helms doing Jingle Bell Rock. It's one of the versions that gets massive airplay this time o' the year. | |

Betsy:
Love Dan Penn. He was mostly a songwriter - he co-wrote "Do Right Woman" and "Dark End of the Street". | |

Jason B in Portland:
Hi Bets, listening to you while I work from the home desk. I love how much that last one sounds like doo wop. Country Used to be cool like that. Great show. | |
|

Listener John:
Wow, this is a crazy world -- Dan Penn writing soul songs & recording (and writing?) country songs . . . OK, maybe it's not that crazy . . . | |
|

Betsy:

TC Chuck:
Is my computer the cause of a real slow and loud echo? I haven't heard it before, but nobody else is saying anything. | |
|
Thu. 12/9/10 7:57pm
Betsy:
Hmm, I hope not TC, but I'll check in the archives later for an echo! Have a great week errbody! Thanks for listening. | |
