Re: Leon Payne Albums
On Fri, 9 Apr 1999, Ferguson, Dan wrote: If you can find it, the "George Jones Sings Leon Payne" release on Hollywood () is a pretty good substitute if you can't find the real deal. and Don wrote: I've avoided picking that up simply 'cuz the sound from that label (and all the other trashy IMG labels) is generally abysmal. How's the sound on that one, Dan?--don Pretty decent, but like most of them Hollywood releases, only 10 songs. Tracks are: 1 They'll Never Take Her Love From Me 2 Brothers of a Bottle 3 Blue Side of Lonesome 4 There's No Justice 5 With Half a Heart 6 Lifetime to Regret 7 Let a Little Lovin' Come In 8 Take Me 9 The Selfishness inMan 10 Things Have Gone to Pieces Seeing they're usually budget priced, definitely worth picking up.

Re: Was Psycho, now Andre Williams
bill f-w wrote: he had a number of hits, such as "jail bait" and "the greasy chicken," in the '50s, for the fortune label (the imprint that nolan strong the diablos, a big influence on smokey and the miracles, recorded for). and i'm pretty sure that williams wrote or cowrote "shake a tailfeather," but i'd i have to do some digging to confirm it. bill f-w There's a highly recommended collection of Andre Williams' '50s Fortune stuff on Eagle Records called "Mr. Rhythm." 27 tracks of pure grit and grease including all the tree-tops. His version of "Pass the Biscuits Please" is a riot. Norton Records carries it. Boudin Dan

Re: Dale Watson Report?
I made the mistake of not showing up till 10:15 pm, about 20 mins before Watson took the stage. The Rodeo was as packed as I've ever seen it. I wormed my way as far forward as I could but.. So here's Dale Watson in NYC packing a joint and he gets zilch for radio airplay and still doesn't sell shit for records. Go figure. Signed, A whopping Dale Watson fan (a.k.a. Boudin Dan)
Re: Jon Dee Graham (and other new stuff)
While there's been little or no speak of it, must admit the new Jon Dee record is pretty darn worth your hard-earned dollars. Staying in a Southwest frame of mind, the recent Lydia Mendoza collection from Arhoolie as well as their "best of" Flaco disc are also worth seeking out. And while a tad generic, New Haven's Big Bad Johns' new one on Feralette Records is helpin' me get my yah yah's out. Boudin Dan

I have the one CD "essential" recording from Columbia and would recommend it to anyone with ears. I've been saving up for the Bear Family box. A few weeks ago I played about 10 Ray Price songs in a row on a whim because I like him so much...thank god for college radio. Totally worth saving your hard-earned pennies for!!!

Re: Neko + Kelly x Loretta = Pure Joy
Don wrote: Or somethin' like that. Both sides of Bloodshot's tribute 7" to Loretta Lynn are winners for me. Kelly Hogan delivers a rather suave version of "Hanky Panky Woman," And Kelly also does a real swell job singin' with Jon Boy on "The Hand That Throws the Bottle Down" from the upcoming Waco Bros pint of music called "WacoWorld." Keep a lookout. Boudin Dan

Nashville tips???
I'm planning to be in Nashville on a little vacation from 2/12-16. While NEA will occupy the evenings, I was wondering if anyone in P2-land could offer some tips on off-the-beaten-track diversions (i.e., eating joints, record stores, odd shops, natural or unnatural curiosities, good dingy bars, etc.)? In the interest of not taking up P2 bandwidth, please reply off-list. Thanx. Dan
The Boudin Barndance Playlist - 1/28/99
The Boudin Barndance - 1/28/99 Dan Ferguson WRIU-FM, 90.3 Kingston, RI Thursdays 6-9 pm It was an evening where we paid respect to both Jimmy Day and Charles Brown. I feel pretty fortunate to have had the opportunity to see each of these men perform. Of Mr. Day, it was over a long weekend in Austin back when Don Walser was doing his short-lived Friday happy hour thing at Antone's and then the following Monday evening at Babe's. Jimmy was on steel for both gigs. About a year-and-a-half ago, it was a performance at a harvest fair in Connecticut as once again, part of Ray Price's band. Heading there, I had no idea Jimmy was back playing with Ray. Anyway, being a big time Price fan as well as owner of the Bear Family box, it seemed the perfect opportunity to get his signature on the box. Well, lo-and-behold, the wife and I get there early, find the tour bus, and who's standing outside but Mr. Day. We talked for awhile and a more folksy gentleman you'll never meet. Finally, I asked him if he wouldn't mind taking the box on the bus and gettin' Ray to put his John Hancock on it to which Jimmy responded, "Dan, if I were you, I'd high-tale that thing out of here cause if Ray sees it, he'll stomp it to bits." Suffice to say, I kept that box well under wraps for then entire performance. Anyway, back to the matter at hand and that being this week's playlist. The show was just about kickin' into overdrive when the transmitter iced up and the signal did the same. Not even The Fendermen/Dazzlers segue could revive it. New stuff gettin' first-time Barndance spins included albums from Elena Skye her Demolition Band (thanks Elena!), Damnations Tx which is a mighty impressive record, the Tom Leach quickie live one, the Tom T. Hall tribute, and a great new domestic rockabilly comp called "Wild Rockabilly" from Lost Gold Records. Butt-Shaker of the night? Don Gardner's "My Baby Likes to Boogaloo" in a runaway.
