On today’s show I’ll be announcing a new competition where you can win the latest highly acclaimed album from Kenny Chesney called ‘Hemingway’s Whiskey’ and the new EP release from ex frontman with the Mavericks Raul Malo.
I’ll be taking a look at the risers and fallers in the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart and our Album Of The Week comes from a band that’s been entertaining us for almost four decades…that’s the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
In the ‘On This Day’ feature I’ll be mentioning Cliff Richard, frozen peas, Jack the Ripper, Robbie Williams, PT Barnum’s Circus and Jessie James.
In the ‘Remember This’ spot I’ll be taking to back to 1960 and a song from an artist who had almost forty chart entries but never a number one best seller.
There’s a reminder of which artists are playing where and there’s tracks from Travis Tritt, Lyle Lovett, Tammy Wynette, Billy Ray Cyrus, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson and Ray Price, The Everly Brothers and a whole host more.
Tale time out to unwind and listen to some great music..it’ll be great to have the pleasure of your company.
Cheers
