A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Linda Lee - this is a Sound Dimension instrumental. Name escapes me. Winston Francis did "California Dreaming" before that. This now is Jerry Jones, an American singer who was in Kingston for a while. She did a lot of covers, and I think this is one.

  Thu. 4/5/18 10:54am Mark Williams:

the observation I have about this is that in 1977, Studio One was living off its old reputation. All these tracks are about 6-8 years old at this point. The "new" Jamaican music of 1977 was vastly different and reflected the rawness of the poverty and political warfare on the streets at the time.

@Magda-are you from Poland? My wife is from Poland and she went to a country music festival in Poland with Polish musicians. I had no idea! I am happy FMU plays country once in awhile, it would be cool if there was a country show. Here I listen to an OLD country show on AM radio in my car. My wife says AM is for old people.

@WN & NGH, I was just about to mention that I really liked Betsy's old show back in the day. I think NGH is getting Becky & Betsy mixed up. They both did/do country. Betsy moved away, unfortunately. Betsy's show was even better IMHO. Archives are here: wfmu.org...

I didn't like Southern Rock until I moved to NYC. It was omnipresent when I grew up. It was only in Brooklyn, I noticed something was missing. (yes, I played Skynyrd at the downtown avant club Tonic).

@NGH, I know what you mean -- that's the kind of thing the jocks and normies (do we say "normies?") listened to in rural Maryland. Still not into it! Don't get it. Never understood why anybody would want to hear that on FMU. I came to FMU to get away from that. And to get away from corny Dusty Show type stuff.

Eik... I am guessing what they were listening to was redneck music, not southern rock. The two are mostly not the same.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ Thu. 4/5/18 11:50am melinda:

@eik sometimes the recontextualization helps. I don't feel that the station needs more southern rock but I like it when I hear some of it outside of the annoying commercial stations, sandwiched between non-obvious choices.

Your saying that does not negate the fact of what I said. And I think the civil war was fought to end slavery. Plantation owners may have used the northern oppression argument to appease their conscious, but I never bought it.
