Send us Fan Mail Take a trip back to the golden age of American roots music as The Old Dingy Jukebox spins another eclectic collection of original 78 RPM records featuring vintage country, blues, bluegrass, western swing, Cajun music, and old-time string bands. Episode #40 digs deep into the grooves of forgotten records and legendary performers, from the raw Detroit honky-tonk of Skeets McDonald and the early bluegrass harmonies of Jimmy Martin and Bobby Osborne to the powerful Kansas City blues of Big Joe Turner accompanied by stride piano great Willie “The Lion” Smith. We'll hear Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys swing through their World War II-era hit “Smoke on the Water,” Memphis Minnie deliver her unmistakable guitar-driven blues on “Lean Meat Won't Fry,” and a young Porter Wagoner years before his Grand Ole Opry stardom. Along the way, we'll uncover obscure honky-tonk sides from Ace Ball and Al Dexter, Mississippi string-band music from the Leake County Revelers, classic country harmonies from Kirk and Sam McGee and Johnnie and Jack, and hard-driving Chicago blues from harmonica master Jazz Gillum. The journey also crosses the Texas-Mexico border with Melquiades and Encarnación Villarreal, heads down the highway with Bob Newman's “Lonesome Truck Driver's Blues,” and winds through the Louisiana backwoods with Luderin Darbone and His Hackberry Ramblers. Sixteen vintage recordings, all drawn from the rich history of 78 RPM records, tell the story of American music before rock and roll took over the airwaves. Featured artists: Skeets McDonald • Jimmy Martin & Bobby Osborne • Big Joe Turner • Zeke Manners • Ace Ball • Leake County Revelers • Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys • Porter Wagoner • Kirk & Sam McGee • Al Dexter • Memphis Minnie • Melquiades & Encarnación Villarreal • Jazz Gillum • Bob Newman • Hackberry Ramblers • Johnnie & Jack Dust off your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and enjoy another trip through the forgotten sounds of American music on The Old Dingy Jukebox.
