This episode is 100% rockabilly to close the summer. We are rumbling with dead or alive rockabillies like the Booze Bombs, Brian Setzer, Buddy Holly, Hayden Thompson and more. Twang guitars, slap basses and much echo from the past to the present !

This episode is a 100% country show. As “just a country boy”, “how long” “I’m movin’ on” “broke down” “wild in the country” ? With Hank Snow, Elvis, Radney Foster, Dire Straits and the slidin’ Thorogood.

Summer’s going whereas we’ve never seen the sun so that drinkin’ ain’t hard to do. Next to country moan and slide guitar, we’re going back to Paris in the 60′s with bluesmen Big Bill Broonzy, Memphis Slim and Willie Dixon performing in the St Germain jazz joints.
