Hi Becky, hopheads!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:08pm Barney Grubbs:

Nice accordion in Roy Hogsed’s band
  8:08pm BH:

extra points for the singer who sang a version of "Cocaine Blues" who was the least likely to have used cocaine
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:08pm Becky:

It's so funny that this song is pretty much a polka.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:09pm PigeonsAndRust:

Two great seldom-heard versions of one of the all-time best tunes.THANKS for this!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:09pm PigeonsAndRust:

Too bad Frankie Yankovic didn't cut a version
  8:10pm BH:

Hank Thompson's annunciation is a little to get used to after being so used to the best known version.

Also, the Webb Pierce/Willie Nelson duet of "In the Jailhouse Now" actually kinda worked
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:11pm Becky:

I bet you Frankie did some blow in his day.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:13pm Scott Williams:

requests Johnny Paycheck's Ballad of Frisco Bay, on account of I watched Jaws recently
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:14pm PigeonsAndRust:

Frankie did own a bar, and his father was a bootlegger, so..yeah!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:14pm Listener Scott:

That Rusty Draper number has me thinking there should probably be a song about Miranda rights.
  8:15pm johnk77:

great show
requesting hoyt axton
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:16pm PigeonsAndRust:

Or maybe the "Probable Cause Polka"
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:17pm Handy Haversack:

Hey, Becky! Hey, Tonkies.

The music to prison pipeline, eh? Sounding good.
  8:18pm The Butterman:

Hey Becky! San Francisco and other areas out on the West Coast are just orange skies today.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:24pm Becky:

Yes, was talking to a colleague in SF on Zoom and he took me out on the balcony for a second -- totally apocalyptic
Avatar 8:25pm y_ddraig_las:

Hei, [Can I say?] "y'all", or is that cultural appropriation? Asking for a friend
  8:26pm JakeGould:

Friend’s small kid in S.F. saw the orange sky, was told it was about fires and the kid just said, “At least I don’t have fire ants in my penis!” Oh those youth of today!!!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:27pm ultradamno:

Glasgow County Jail flows better than "Barren County Jail"? (Glasgow, KY is in Barren County)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:37pm Jason from Houston:

Took me years to use y'all and I am from Fort Worth...
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:38pm ultradamno:

The official most C&W episode of The Twilight Zone (even more than Jess-belle or The Last Rites of Jeff Myrtlebank)? twilightzone.fandom.com...
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:38pm Handy Haversack:

Jason from Houston is from Fort Worth?! My world is reeling!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:40pm Becky:

Is this America's Greatest Song, or what?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:41pm Uncle Michael:

I'm tardy.

Currently from Houston. Here since 2008. I had been back and forth messing around with love and friends and art since 1997 or so.
Avatar 8:43pm y_ddraig_las:

I was wondering when this would turn up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:43pm Scott Williams:

@ultradamno, that's probably my fave TZ episode! So spooky, and such a gorgeous song. tho maybe more "folk boom" than C&W
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:45pm ultradamno:

Well, he does admit, once he's in deep "that's not even what I do, man, I play rockabilly, like this.."

Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:50pm Uncle Michael:

As a Kansas guy I have to have Lee Hazlewood's "Hutchison Jail" as my favorite jail song...but I don't. My favorite is Tom T Hall's "A Week In A County Jail".
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:53pm Handy Haversack:

Kate and I are cooking and eating over so have not been able to get to the comments, but: *fierce* show, Becky. Thank you!

Thanks, Skeletons.

Be well, all. No more jails. Tear them down.
