Our show this week features blues and country numbers about the many different American cities that had their own personalities…good and bad. You be the judge. From Naptown and Kokomo to KC and Mobile…north, south, east, and west. We’ll hear from Barbecue Bob, Lonnie Johnson, Ernest Tubb, Charlie Poole, and Little Brother Montgomery (to name just a few). Join Dave Stroud for another two hours of America’s tradition …
