Hi Folks.
We got a little extra time at the start of this show, so we were able to get more early and classic music into the show than usual.
Our part of the show was mostly classic country music from the 1940s through the 1960s with a special focus on the year 1956.
|
(L to R) Bonnie, Jim Ed, and Maxine Brown |
We also paid our respects to Bonnie Brown, a member of The Browns along with older siblings Jim Ed (who just died last year) and Maxine. Bonnie died the day before our broadcast on June 16, 2016.
Joe Bussard brought some delightful rare 78s from his collection for his 41st show for Red Rooster Party on our last hour.
If you enjoyed our early country musical heritage, we hope you will tune in every Sunday for more great music on Red Rooster Party. Tell a friend, too.
