Singles Going Steady Country Style
When you're looking at listener Greg G, you're lookin' at Country. Grab a six pack and tune in this Thursday evening when he drops by our Jersey City studios with more whacked out country 45's than you can shake a stick at. Here are some of my favorites from the long lamented mix tape days.
Atlanta My Hometown (mp3)
Bonnie Owens - My Hi-Fi To Cry By
Ray Price - Go Away
Leona Williams - Yes Ma'am, He Found Me In A Honky Tonk
Gary Buck - That's Why I Sing In A Honky Tonk
Jimmy La Sane - Black Folks Love Country Music Too
Merle Haggard - Warm Red Wine
Wayne Raney - We Need A Whole Lot More Of Jesus
Duane Eddy - Guitar Star
Am I the only one that was hoping for a collection of Buzzcocks songs done by country artists?

Thanks for the publicity, Debbie! That "mix tape" photo was a hoot and a half.

I snagged that photo from an online auction awhile back. Someone was selling several wax figures of Country Greats! Just think, someone bought it and possibly has it in their home right now!
