Many of you may know Loretta Lynn through @FourWalls’ wonderful discussions but I needed something to put with this photo which I took at the Country Music Muster. I probably knew but had forgotten that Loretta, the country music...

Oops, country music time. Sorry, Linda. But sixty years ago, that was all I listened to. That probably explains why these music countdowns are so weird. Back to 1965 for a name that...

Along with a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer in Gene Pitney, today you’ll get a two-for-one Country Music Hall of Fame song, since it’s a duet. A couple of people you’ve definitely heard of, even if you don’t know anything about...

The top ten starts tomorrow; and, as I said, seven of those songs are rock tunes. So if you can tolerate one more country song, you will have survived! The regular (alphabetized) part of this look at “ain’t” songs...

Happy Thursday, and welcome to another day of songs that were banned on the radio. For the second time we’re venturing into the world of country music (meaning Linda? NO!!!! ) for a song that was refused airplay on...

Although inevitable, still incredibly sad.
Loretta Lynn has passed away.
The country music legend, who’s well-known throughout the world, died this morning (October 4) in her sleep at her ranch home in Hurricane Mills,...

Hooray! Doctor’s appointment day. I get to hear my doctor congratulate me on my weight loss journey. (Then he’ll tell me everything else that’s wrong. That’s the way doctors work, y’know....

April 14, 1932 was probably an unremarkable day in the world. The Depression was well underway. Poor people in eastern Kentucky probably had no clue that there was a stock market crash.
It was in this world that Loretta Webb...

Another day, another song! Right now I’m celebrating poet, author, illustrator, and songwriter Shel Silverstein, who’ll be honored with a postage stamp for one of those things (author) next month on a postage stamp. I’m just...

Sorry about the country music. This is the last one in this series of countdowns. At least everybody knows (or knows of) this song, so it’s not going to hurt too much. It might shock you to think of this song as 50 years...

Remember a couple of days ago when I said there were two “repeat artists” in this round of dual countdowns? What do you know, it’s time for round two from both of them! I certainly didn’t plan it that way. Let’s start in the...

Let’s see...if we have my teenybopper on one end of these two countdowns about the lockdown (being stuck in the house and yearning for freedom), where can I go from there? Oh, yeah, one of the “girl singers” on one of my favorite...

Happy Thursday! Today I reach my second-favorite song about coal mining, and this is probably the ultimate "okay, who didn't see this one coming" song. It's probably one of the first songs you'd think of when someone raises the...

When I went on a weekend jaunt last month I stopped in Rosine, Kentucky on a musical pilgrimage. Rosine is the birthplace of the "Father of Bluegrass Music," Bill Monroe. This time around I was on the other side of the state,...

From one of the best-known songs in popular music I turn to country music in 1970, and again I'm going with one of the most iconic songs in country music. This is one that everyone has at least heard of, if just by name. It's on...

It was touch and go there for a while: there was a pretty heavy downpour over the eastern part of the city. That's not where we play, however, and we made it through the tournament tonight. In a close one, I came in second...

It's a pleasant evening here, after the hot weekend (exacerbated by being outside playing Putt Putt all weekend!). I had a great evening, playing with the kids who live next door (as Ernest Tubb used to say, be better to your...

After a day and a half off to take a trip to St. Louis for Twangfest it's time to reveal my favorite Kentucky-born musician. This countdown was inspired by @LoriAMoore (and we'll need to go back to City BBQ and flirt with your...
