Here's a great tool shows the peoples and languages indigenous to anyone's locality and also the treaties that were made concerning them: native-land.ca

Wow, almost missed it! Evening y'all. Is this the one week the show is at 12 (GMT+1) before the clocks go back to normal time?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:06pm
Handy Haversack:

One more week after this, y_ddraig_las, I think. Our time change is 7 November.

Used to have this thing about Link Wray. Used to play him every Saturday.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:07pm
Becky:

Thanks Handy - awesome link. Ha.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:08pm
Becky:

Hey y'all - I obviously need a lot of help in the pledge department! If you have the means and interest, I'd be ever grateful!
Avatar 🎸 ♥ 8:09pm
y_ddraig_las:

That's an amazingly detailed map Handy! I'm sad that the Celtic languages aren't on there, but I suppose it's because the Celts displaced the beaker people!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:13pm
Handy Haversack:

I can's speak definitely, y_ddraig_las, but my guess is that it shows Indigenous people displaced from Age of Sail/colonization onward? Though of course the Celts were displaced from pretty early days!

Though also maybe it's just still in development? It's a N. American project so is likely spreading its base outward from this continent.

Man, we listened to lots of Marty Robbins in my childhood home. This is a time machine for me.
Avatar 🎸 ♥ 8:17pm
y_ddraig_las:

Or maybe because Europe would be very difficult to do any sort of justice to. We Welsh just like to reminding people that Welsh was spoken here long before English came along.

Nothing but the best - Marty passes the test! ❤️

I grew up thinking he was just a NASCAR driver who died young.

This is probably my favorite Link

Hearing it in Pink Flamingos was probably was put onto Wray many, many years ago
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:21pm
Rich in Washington:

He does have a certain NASCAR je ne sais quoi to him, yes.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:22pm
Becky:

I mean, he was a NASCAR driver! That was just the only thing I ever knew.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:22pm

Becky, what was the band at Otto's? It's not on their calendar.

Thanks! We'll try. Not sure how ridiculously scheduled up K8 is next week.

This is sublime
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:27pm
Rich in Washington:

I'd never heard of Rainwater until I stumbled upon one of his singles titled Tea Bag Romeo, and this was around the time of the rise of the 'tea party' republicans, so naturally, I was intrigued.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:31pm
Becky:

Sorry folks! This is what you get for playing, gulp, CDs.
  8:32pm

One day there'll be nostalgia for CDs?

I never thought cassettes would ever come back, but come back they did! T
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:37pm
Pauly from Clifton:

@ultradamno, thanks for that link (sorry!) that you posted at the beginning of the show. Link Wray is just so good. I was lucky to catch him in Raleigh in '98 perhaps? How this guy's not in the RnR Hall perplexes me.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:37pm

Summon some angry country ghosts! Pledge for Honky Tonk Radio Girl -- and keep the CDs in the bank!

A flatmate of mine put Concentration Moon on repeat in his room, locked his door and went out. My appreciation of this tune is now somewhat coloured!

I'm all ready for the CD revival!

Old Dave:

How is Buffy Ste-Marie a honky tonk category - or Frank fer Chrissakes?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:43pm
Becky:

Old Dave, this is a freeform station, so Honky Tonk is what I decide it is! <3

Matt from Ok:

Check out Samantha Crain from Oklahoma. She is amazing.

Wait til we get to the next set, it will be SO honky tonk.

"What Becky says it is" has been my operational definition for quite some time.

Thanks for the show tonight

Here's a playlist that is inspired by the documentary, "Rumble". A few of the artists that Becky played tonight are on it.

honky tonk is a continuum
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:47pm
ultradamno:

I'd just hate for the words "honky" and "tonk" to come off as nonsense. 😉
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49pm
Handy Haversack:

What sort of hookery-jackery might result, ultradamno!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49pm
Rich in Washington:

@Becky: I am glad I am not the only one who's lukewarm on The Band.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49pm
ultradamno:

Oh...we see eye to eye on The Band issue!
  8:49pm
Old Dave:

Sorry all, she pretended to understand bluegrass some time ago and got a pass in NJ. Who knows what Ken will allow next.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:50pm
Rich in Washington:

Jimmy Carl Black did some cool stuff with Eugene Chadbourne shortly before shuffling off this mortal coil - also not quite radio safe.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:50pm
Becky:

Dave, if there's anything I would never pretend, it's to understand bluegrass. Thanks for your feedback.
Avatar ♥ 8:52pm
Chapelhillian:

I saw Link Wray in Tucson about 20 years back. He had a local rhythm section for the show and they only had about 30 minutes of material rehearsed. So they played it twice
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:52pm
ultradamno:

It's speed metal for guys without amplifiers and pedals
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:53pm
listener 126464:

You gotta get a crushed soda can under each heel to do the Robot Walk, per X-Ray.
Avatar 🎸 ♥ 8:54pm
y_ddraig_las:

Because grass is blue. A lot of Pre-English languages (including Welsh) used a different colour spectrum, 'blue' used to include some dark greens. Nothing to do with the music mind!
  8:54pm
Old Dave:

I am chastened over here. Good night.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:56pm
Becky:

By the way, Redbone and this stone cold Number One Hit is ABSOLUTELY honky tonk. I will not be taking questions.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:57pm
ultradamno:

I wouldn't question it. I think I saw this at the time. Big hit.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:58pm
Handy Haversack:

Accolades only!

Thanks, Becky! Great show. And thanks for highlighting Indigenous musicians. It's something we need to be doing more and more. Much appreciated.

Later on, Tonkers! Pledge if you can!

Now to go grab some quality time with the new kittens!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:58pm
listener 126464:

I think they did a traditional dance before the song.
Avatar 🎸 ♥ 8:59pm

Another top show Becky and Tonkies! Nos da
