UPCOMING SPECIAL BOUDIN BARNDANCE SHOW INFO:
June 11 – Album You Need to Hear feature


Birthday salutes to a couple of late honky tonk legends in Gary Stewart and Johnny Paycheck was the feature on this evening’s Boudin Barndance radio show. Highly recommended is Jimmy McDonough’s new bio of Stewart called I Am From The Honky Tonks. It is an incredible ride. As for the reminder of the show, it was a first hour of new releases followed by the extended weekly C&W segment. We finished a mess of great odds and ends. New albums and singles this evening came from Taj Mahal & the Phantom Blues Band, David Serby, India Ramey, Jim Lauderdale, Sam Platts, Charley Crockett, and Rachel Brooke. Hope you were able to listen, but if not check out the LISTEN link above to check out the archive. Buttshaker of the week????
