After last week's best of British New Wave this week we head across the pond to catch up with some of our Americana friends. Whereas Britain has some national stations given the size of America that is not really feasible and there tends to be more local stations.
Jon Langford, for instance, extols the virtues of Nashville Radio whereas Dave Alvin is more of a Border Radio man. Steve Earle on the other hand is just happy with a Satellite Radio.
We will be twiddling with the frequencies again next Friday.
Jon Langford - Nashville Radio
Some top stations
ReplyDeleteAmerican Radio this week, is it Rockabilly Radio nest, then Gospel Radio etc? All good songs !!
ReplyDeleteGreat picks, CC, especially the opener from Jon Langford.
ReplyDeleteAnd I’m glad you weren’t lured in by Queen, despite their remarkably prescient (one) vision that one day there might be an entire station dedicated to Lady Gaga.
Hopefully room for Wall Of Voodoo and Latin Quarter in an upcoming instalment.
ReplyDeleteThey may well be on the list!
DeleteGlad I tuned in today, and I second K’s suggestions above. - Brian
