Of the dozen songs on this new edition of the program, many are filled with statements, questions, claims or declarations. There is also a track set in real Canadian bar, one that mentions "The Man In Black," and one that takes us back to 1960. The International Americana Music Show remains the only radio show that plays Americana music made exclusively by non-American artists.
Now in its eighth year of syndication, The International Americana Music Show (TIAMS) remains the only radio show anywhere in the world to exclusively feature Americana music made solely by non-American artists. The hour-long show includes new music and classic tracks by bands and singers, many of whom have never before been heard on American radio, and who come from an incredibly diverse range of countries. The show is presented by New York based, Scottish broadcaster, Michael Park. TIAMS reports to NPR Digital Services and conforms to the Audio Loudness Standard: -24LUFS +/- 2LU.
Ep. 469 - Jack Guthrie - His Greatest Songs
From Sean Hickey | Part of the If That Ain't Country series | 02:54:00
In this week's episode we're remembering a name that is too often left out of conversations about western swing: Jack Guthrie. Our feature album this week is Capitol's 1966 retrospective: "Jack Guthrie - His Greatest Songs", featuring twelve dynamite western swingers from his extremely short recording career (1944-1947). Born in Oklahoma in 1915 and a cousin to the famous Woody Guthrie, Jack's family moved around - the age of nineteen found him married on the West Coast, singing and entertaining in cafes and bars while pursuing a rodeo dream. After hearing Guthrie's easy-going hillbilly tenor, Capitol's Lee Gillette signed him to a recording deal in 1944, and the likeable Okie recorded his first and biggest hit "Oklahoma Hills" shortly after. Uncle Sam saw him whisked overseas before he could enjoy his new found national fame, but between then and his untimely passing from tuberculosis in 1947, he cut some sensational sides. With overdubbed honky tonk brushes a la Hank Thompson of the same era, Capitol have an excellent look at a career cut short - and as if Jack Guthrie needed anymore credibility, the original LP has some extremely candid liner notes written by his personal friend: the iconic Merle Travis. Turn it up.
