Broadcaster Comments
I've never understood the point of "Oldies" shows that simply play one track after another, with no attempt at putting the recordings into their musical (and social) context. For example, I think it's very interesting that the records produced out of the Sun studios were all made by the sons of sharecroppers who had recently moved into the cities. I play lesser-known songs by well-known singers like Carl Perkins and Fats Domino, and also some great tracks by not-so-well known singers such as Bobby Charles and Rosco Gordon. And I'll tell you who played on each track, who wrote the song, where it was recorded, and what the singer did later in his/her career. It's fun, you hear the best music, and you get to appreciate one of the 20th. century's great art-forms - the 2-minute record.
