Ah yes,but there we have it!I found out far long ago that there is
where Folk music came from,which is defined as Yankees trying to do
Country Music!What is even more comedic is one of our local
commercial FM stations that tries to put on a Classic Country show
on Sunday nights using Generation X DJ's.The few times I have had to
listen to this I have been introduced to some totally new artists
such as "Hark Williams","Lefty Frizzle","Ernest Tube","Kitty Walls"
and even a selection from the "Light Crest Doughboys".I am still
waiting for selections from "Bob Wells" though!Of Course if they do
play any "Bob wells" naturally I will also expect selections
from "Spad Collie" and "Peewee Kink"!--- In
