What happened this week in Classic Country Music?
Color-changing Text *****Let’s two-step through them years like a tumbleweed in a Texas twister: 1924: Gordon Stoker, born in Gleason, Tennessee, sang with the Jordanaires—Elvis, Patsy, and Jim Reeves rode their tunes like broncos at a rodeo. Gordon tipped his hat and rode off to the big honky-tonk in the sky.***** 1927: Ralph Peer, that ol’ music wrangler, corralled Jimmie Rodgers in a dusty Bristol warehouse. Jimmie sang sweet as a moonshine sip, pocketed a hundred bucks, and rode off into the hillbilly sunset.***** 1953: Randy Scruggs, Nashville-born and pickin’ like a chicken on a Junebug, jammed with Waylon, George, and Emmylou. Grammy in his pocket, he waltzed off to the Grand Ole Opry in the sky.***** 1970: Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton cut an album, “Once More,” like a pair of lovebirds on a front porch swing. “Daddy Was an Old Time Preacher Man” crooned its way to Grammy nods.***** 1974: Billy “Crash” Craddock’s “Rub It In” topped the charts, slicker than a greased pig at the county fair. Layng Martine wrote it, Crash sang it, and Ray Stevens spun the jukebox.***** 1999: Patsy Cline got her Hollywood star, shinin’ brighter than a rhinestone on a Saturday night. “Crazy,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Walkin’ After Midnight” echoed through the holler.***** 2010: Taylor Swift’s “Fifteen” danced at the MTV hoedown, kickin’ dust with Beyonce, Ke$ha, Gaga, and Katy. Country met pop, and the barn doors swung wide.***** There ya have it, friend! Years lassoed, spun, and sung like a country ballad under a moonlit sky.***** ...
Sorry for the inconvenience....

Howdy, y’all!

This is Bubba and Earl from Redneck Junction Radio, comin’ at ya with a big ol’ apology. We done had to shut down the airwaves on July 29-30th for some “maintenance” (and by maintenance, we mean Bubba tried to fix the antenna with duct tape and a prayer).

We know y’all missed your favorite tunes and our charming voices, and for that, we’re real sorry. But don’t you worry none! We’ll be back and better than ever, with more country hits, more laughs, and maybe even a few less technical difficulties (fingers crossed).

Thanks for stickin’ with us, and we promise to make it up to ya. Y’all are the best listeners a couple of rednecks could ask for!

See ya soon, Bubba & Earl

 

UPDATE:  Redneck Junction is back on the air as of 3:32 a.m. CDT July 30,2024.  Special SHOUTOUT to our listeners in Hamburg/HH-DE and Washington, DC for being the first two to join us again; we consider your loyalty a sacred trust!
